The general advice is to stop digging when you're in a hole.
Your persistence got me curious enough to look up how Landers Nolley is doing at Memphis this year. He's scoring 13.8 ppg to lead the Tigers, and he's hitting 82% of his free throws, best on the team.
Tyrese Martin is playing against better competition, for a higher rated team (34 vs. 57 KenPom, and the 58 vs. 63 NET hasn't been updated yet tonight), scoring 12.1 ppg and hitting 65% of his FTs.
Otherwise, Martin's stats show him playing more minutes per game, having higher FG% & 3-pt%, double the rebounds, and no meaningful distinction in any other category. I like the guy we got.
It's nice to be in early with a punchy take, but as with haiku, sometimes you have to measure twice and cut once.
Danny's got more tools than ever before, but his job is gonna be more challenging every day to get to where he wants to be this year & beyond.
