Message: [QUOTE="auror, post: 4706570, member: 1329"] What the data says is the Newton 2nd half of the season "lead guard" narrative is overstated. He had a big start of February usage-wise (and the Xavier loss in Jan), but then settled back down to his normal level for the rest of Feb, March, and April (with a few big games sprinkled throughout including the title game). BOTH he and Jackson had more usage in the 2nd of the year post-losing streak. The point is that we had a really balanced offense last year with multiple initiators that were used in different ways and multiple finishers that were used in different ways. The same should be true this season. The lead guard talk is forcing a square peg into a round hole. What we're going to have is more guys that can go and get you a bucket off a drive (or draw a foul), and less post ups (probably). [/QUOTE]
