Message: [QUOTE="WhereistheDove?, post: 4256563, member: 1109"] Your points on his offensive limitations are fair, but if you think his "fancy passes" were all he had running the point, you totally missed the last stretch of the season. He was easily our best pure point in terms of facilitating and running offense. Was there some carelessness and trying to do too much? Absolutely, but he also has a great eye for finding the open man and putting them in a position to score. This is an aside, but numerous times throughout the year, he would see the open man at the 3-point line but not immediately make the pass and instead drove the ball just enough to screen the closest defender and then make the pass in order to stop the defender from even closing out and contesting at all. That's not "fancy passes", that's someone that saw the big picture and made things happen. I love Tyrese and his improvement from 3 and I don't think we should discount how many times Andre found him in rhythm and put him in great positions to have open looks. [/QUOTE]
