I think Brandon is hurt pretty bad right now.  He just isn't moving like he did earlier in the year.  Little side to side agility and can't jump anymore either.  He admitted to having back problems a week or two ago but refused to use it as an excuse.  I don't have numbers on it but I think if someone were to analyze it, they would find that he goes into a swoon like this late in the season every year.  I think his back just can't take the day to day grind and eventually it affects his performance.  Though this is the worse things have been for him.
 
Thought JS did a really good job most of the year of knowing his role, focusing on his strengths and playing to them.  Since his return, I think he has been dribbling the ball more, taking noticably more tough shots/questionable 3 point shots.  Not sure how much of this is driven by the team's offensive struggles. 
 
We have been very fortunate to have seniors that have consistently played well, and stepped up at crunch time to make big plays to win games.  That hasn't happened this season.  It is a shame...these kids have won a lot of games and played really well many times.  But their legacy is getting diminished greatly by the bad play down the stretch of their senior seasons.
