Message: [QUOTE="ctchamps, post: 2915034, member: 37"] Check out peoples comments about CV when Hurley took over. You know comments like the guy who hustles, never quits, and the fear Hurley might lose him. Two games in and now he's expendable even though his play is the same as when most people were saying positive things about him. The difference is now we have two additional capable guards that we didn't have the past two seasons in Gilbert and Smith. It remains to be seen if both those players performance remains better overall than CV's. Personally I hope they do because that increases the number of player available to Hurley but there are no guarantees. Every season posters join the bandwagon of the hot hand only to quickly discard the player when they fade in performance. That is the only predictable thing imo. I still admire CV's hustle. He's the prototypical JC blue collar player. Sure his offense makes me cringe. But he's a streak shooter and I predict before the season ends he will be the player that helps win a game or two that shocks the basketball world. Hurley, like JC, values hustle, defense and rebounding differently than the majority of fans in this thread. Scoring will always take a back seat to those three aspects of the game. He'll remain a starter as long as he excels at those three things. [/QUOTE]
