Message: [QUOTE="OrangeDW, post: 2956172, member: 2458"] One of my negative nelly SU friends texted me “get Buddy out, he can’t get his shot off against teams like this”, 5 minutes into the game. Can’t really get my response by the filters. But needless to say, Buddy did just fine against Duke. He can get his shot off fine, off the catch. That’s not all on him. And he’s getting a lot better at developing an off the dribble game too. He’s improved as much in one season as anyone I can think of. He’s gotta pull the trigger with confidence, which he does really well for a freshman IMO, but he’s not perfect. But he’s not Jordan or Kobe or Carmelo where you get him the ball first and say “get your shot off”. It’s a team effort. He knows how to get open within the context of other guys doing their job and making smart basketball plays. Once everybody settled in a bit, he got open and he made shots. [/QUOTE]
