Message: [QUOTE="bozophobe, post: 2512068, member: 2589"] Having an additional 3 point threat would be huge. Hughes might get that respect. If only to reduce having opposing coaches ignore players like Marek or Moyer, and double-teaming the most important player. Hughes or someone else will need the green light from Boeheim, though. And maybe even do that roaming thing that Southerland and Cooney did, which often pressured opponents to use their best defenders on them. Perception matters, and Boeheim's stark, black and white green light / red light system seems to harden that perception. Brissett was awful for a long time, but he retained everyone's respect, and rightly so. When a player is open, they should be allowed to shoot it. It's a higher percentage shot than any other kind of long shot (fast-break pull-ups, etc.) Funny, the radio keeps playing that electrical contractor union ad with the Boeheim voiceover- "Putting an untrained team on the court makes no sense..."
