First off, its awesome to see Trevor finally putting together a nice run of games. Although i tend to disagree with it, its clear the Jimmy B's never ending green light w Trevor has boosted his confidence. He is playing really well. Part of the reason is he at least tries to drive to the hole. Now he is not a good finisher, probably not even average, but the threat of it at least forces defenders to keep it in the back of their minds. This is precisely what me and others deemed as "Cooney haters" have been wanting all along. Drive the ball. His handle is not bad and his mid range game isnt either. Its great to see him playing better. He certainly deserved criticism for stringing together about 20 games straight of pure garbage, but he also deserves a ton of praise for how he has turned it around.
Now for the irony of it all:
As i sat at the game and watched Trevor drain shot after shot (which despite what many would think, drew loud cheers and fist pumps from me), i realized that the games i attend... Trevor plays his best. Weird but true. Coincidence, yes. But fact nonetheless. I was present for the barrage vs Notre Dame last year. All told, 9 games last year and 4 games this year... Cuse has gone 13-0 and Trevor has averaged 19.8 points per game.
I will be in attendance Tuesday vs Wake and also for Louisville. Bet the ranch on those games if you like messing w Vegas. And expect the young Irishman to go off. Keep it up Trevor !!
PS - actually a pretty nice crowd for a Sunday night. Cuse surely is a basketball town.
