She plays phenomenal zone defense though
That certainly looks promising

Looks like he is moving well
He did need a reset and didn't get one. He's played god awful tonight.

Not sure I can agree he was "god awful".
He had a grand total of 2 turnovers. And 6 assists. 3/1 ratio is pretty good, isn't it? Granted the turnover at about midcourt after a timeout late in the game was really bad.
I might have been a little rough on him now that I read his stat sheet. I take issue with my own description now
At the game though there were some glaring mistakes that if Alex played for J. Calhoun, he would have gotten an earful and some time on the bench.
Alex came around at the end but for someone who seems to play the whole game, he’s got to limit those headscratching plays (fouling a 3 point shooter who made shot, turning ball over at the end of the game in which Butler could have won the game, and missing “bunny shots” one after the other.)
He has some god awful plays that if he played for J Calhoun he would have gotten an earful and some time on the bench.
But I should have not used “god awful” to describe his play tonight but rather to describe about half a dozen plays he made that were frankly, baffling!

I don't think Calhoun is taking Alex and benching him for that type of mistake. Calhoun would yell at him but he knows that this team isn't deep enough for someone replace the scoring and tangibles that Alex does give.I might have been a little rough on him now that I read his stat sheet.
