I understand the ovrerated bits, but hes done a heck of alot more then cooney and rak as sophmores(and I like Cooneys defensive hustle today). And he is playing a leader role on top of it. Thats what leaders do get out of their comfort zone. Hes a pass first point guard who sets up others thats now trying to score more because
1.we only have 3 other scorers, 
2. have no other 7-8 shots per game isolation threat 
3. have lost our best spot up shooter.
4. have nobody to catch the ball and go up strong in the post for Mike to dish to.
 
No reason to attack him because hes a pg that is a pretty good driver and outside shooter for a sophmore who lacks strength. Just look at how much stronger Carmelo Anthony got after he left syracuse.
 
Consider all he did is pass everytime he had the ball. We all would say he has to try to score more because we need it, and probably lose either way.
 
Disliking a kid because hes going to go pro before he blossoms fully is Fair, afterall we are syracuse fans first and we want a kid to sacrifice a whole year so we can maybe go to the final four or better. I [U]use[/U] to feel the same way.
 
I would love to have him back next year even if it did drop our fg% 3-4% and add another turnover or two. I think he could really break out with another year to smooth himself out.
