The "Go To Guy" Criticism

[pfister1]

For everyone saying that we showed Hubert Davis and whichever other of the talking heads that we do have a Go To Guy, I'm going to call

I don't want to take anything away from Joseph's performance last night because he was big and really stepped up in a big way last night...Kudos to him for doing so. But I don't really feel like he can summon up a game like that whenever we need it. It was basically accomplished by having a career night from outside.

If we are in another rock fight and down one with one possession left can you really say you are comfortable thinking the designed play is going to be to get KJo a look from behind the arc??

When these guys talk about having a Dude, it's someone that you can count on to get the shot off and hit a high percentage in a clutch situation. In the past its been Melo, GMAC, Hak (senior year), Devo, sometimes Rautins and Flynn.

I'm just not seeing it yet with anyone on this team. I thought it would be Dion and while he can typically get to the basket he hasn't been able to convert much of what he throws up of late.

You know it's funny Joseph was our go to guy last night with 29. Now the glaring problem is defensive rebounding. Can't win for losing.

Can we stop with the Dion Waiters iso's at the end of games? He never passes out of it and just throws up a garbage shot. KJo has been stepping up and playing like the AA hes supposed to be lately. Lets give him a shot.

if Kris can do that on a regular basis and the rest of the team not play like crap that would be unbelievable!

Was also funny..after KJO hits the shot...everyone is going nuts...except Dion. Just straight faced, walking back to the bench. He hates NOT being the hero.

humble pie is a good thing. Hopefully he can now see that he doesn't need to do it all.

Dion had two opportunities last night, once at the end of regulation to win it and again at the end of OT to put the game out of reach. He wiffed both times.

By offensive rebounding I assume you mean the opponent's offensive rebounding. That's not a new problem. Been an issue for quite a while now.

Seriously? I missed that - Guess I was too busy going apeshit myself.
