Agreed. Said this a few games back: with JJ struggling w/ his outside shot right now, his best chance at making a positive contribution is to become more of a distributor/floor general running the point, while Judah can play off the ball and do what he does best - get buckets.

Larry Brown's playbook during the Iverson era can work at SU - letting his dynamic, high-scoring "point guard" (insert Mintz) play off the ball and get buckets, while guys like Eric Snow (insert JJ) actually [I]ran[/I] the point.

And I think that's already happening.  I noticed last night - more than in previous games - whenever Judah got the ball he often looked for JJ, passed to him and let him run the point.  I think that's the best way to maximize JJ's other talents while he figures his shot out.  And last night that approach freed Judah up to drop a career-high 30 piece.

Hope Red sticks with it and builds on the strategy.  Prolly best for JJ and the team.
