Most people are upset because he contributed almost nothing else. "He's our best free throw shooter!" -He got to the line less than 2 or 3 times a game. "He was in the top 5 for steals per game in the ACC" -He may have gotten a lot of steals, but he was not a great defender at the top of the zone. I think we can all agree G is the more effective defender. "Blame the offense around him" -Talented players, worthy of a starting spot, help create offense. Ennis and G penetrated and would dish for open opportunities to other players when the perimeter was not open. Cooney rarely if ever did this and we suffered because of it. These are all things Cooney can work and improve on though. He's not a lost cause, G is just probably the better option right now to start. [/QUOTE]
