Message: [QUOTE="FrancoPizza, post: 1551470, member: 5195"] We have more options in the backcourt this year and there is no objective reason for Cooney to be logging 35+ minutes a game. He is getting the star treatment except he hasn't earned that designation via the eye test or on the stat sheet. It's depressing when JB's anointed stars are glorified chuckers. It's even more depressing when said stars also lack the instincts to finish in traffic when defenses cheat and beg them to drive. I'm not frustrated with Cooney, and I have no incentive to make fun of him, he is what he is. This is about the continued philosophy to make him a featured piece of the offense. It's as if JB is still waiting and expecting high school coonster to show up. Our best odds this year would be to embrace Villanova's 4 guard offense. We're not going to do that without a commitment to get the best playmakers on the court at all times. That means more KJ and giving Howard some rope. [/QUOTE]
