Finally got to watch the Colgate game today.  Very unfair that this was the one that led to Carey's move to the pine.  He hits Eli with a beautiful pass to start the game, and Eli missed the 14 footer.  He makes that shot, and I guarantee much of this conversation goes differently.  He hits Buddy for a three and Buddy missed.  Probably shouldn't have taken the shot in the first place, but that's what Buddy is on the floor for.

Carey got blocked from behind on a fast break.  Guess who else got blocked just a few moments later.  Buddy.  Carey got stripped.  So did either Guerrier or Eli.  Happens.

Half the team was sleep walking to start that game.  I don't put all the onus on Carey for that.  Especially Buddy.  He did NOTHING until 8 minutes had passed in that game.  Missed a three and watched two shot over him.  I like Buddy and know he is a solid player who will be a contributor on both ends, but he got tired in that first half.  He scored 17 that game (maybe a couple more, too lazy to look it up), but it sure felt like he gave up nearly that many, which is odd because he's a solid defender in the zone.  I think the guards all need rotation to get them going.
