Message: [QUOTE="AlaskaSU, post: 2144300, member: 230"] one small quibble. Malachi's inconsistency was of minor importance. His trajectory was more important. As a frosh he was adjusting and deferring. He was better in conf. than in OOC, and he was best in the playoffs. Although inconsistent, of greater importance is that he consistently improved as the competition got better. By the end he was one of the most capable offensive players in college basketball. It is not a strong argument that his early departure was a surprise because he had an inconsistent season. He started weak but, for the most part, came on like a freight train. For the sake of fairness it should be mentioned that in his last game he only scored 17 points, good but not eye-popping. However, he had 4 fouls and shot 50% from the floor. [/QUOTE]
