Message: [QUOTE="General20, post: 5228757, member: 724"] I think people have a hard time wrapping their mind around the fact that Maliq might be just what Duke needs but not what we need. He is elite at stealing the ball and a great passer, but he can't creat his own offense and he can't defend the post. Those are hard skills to build around unless you have the #1 pick in the draft and 3 other McDonald's All Americans you are trying to showcase and you actually want someone who wont shoot. On the other hand Syracuse loses to LeMoyne if they have Brown instead of Davis. No question in my mind. And I think Davis will be more valuable for what Syracuse is trying to do moving forward than Brown would have been. It's not that one is better than the other. They just bring different skillets and Maliq's skills are hard to take adavantage of unless you have some superstars who are going to hog the ball. He is in the right place for him, and we got the right guy for us. [/QUOTE]
