Message: [QUOTE="Gurleyman, post: 1966275, member: 175"] What are you talking about? It was a six game run. For one of those six games, he played poorly (6-20 in regulation and two bad mistakes in crunch time). For one other game, he was effectively shut down and held to 6 FGA by a veteran team with a solid defensive game plan. The rest of the way, he was a maestro playing like a First-Team All-American. I feel like that's not an "extreme" - that's pretty much the story of what happened. The whole point I was making was that there were 3 moments along the way in particular when we desperately needed other people to step up: against Saint Joes, against Villanova when we were down 20-10 and he went to the bench with two fouls, and against Florida, when we were spinning our wheels on offense due to their D on Baxx. All three times, other guys stepped up. I feel like that's not a very controversial take. [/QUOTE]
