Message: [QUOTE="bozophobe, post: 4227520, member: 2589"] I appreciate your optimism about the guards in this thread and another (good feeling for a change, innit?), but having expectations about shooting percentages is probably never a good idea. Stats show frequent declines up to graduation for all kinds of reasons. But that doesn't bother me. Still, without buddy, Joe may draw the opposition's premier defender(s) more, which might require him to fly all over the court in Tasmanian Devil/Trevor Cooney fashion. Combine that with Joe's penchant for, well, shall we say, independent thinking, and #'s retreat to a conservative 35%. Bring it on, though. Everyone knows Dude's gonna hit a crucial 29-footer once or twice, that will be simultaneously ballsy, stupid and heroic. And even Coach B doesn't chew people out for those, heh. [/QUOTE]
