Isaiah is proving that he would have been much better suited to battle 1 on 1 vs Irving than Brandon Knight was in the rising stars game

Having no PG on a basketball team is like an airliner without a captain.

Why does no one else run on the fast break, you're leaving Evans or whoever out there to try and score on 2 or even 3 people.
Extremely.

Why did everyone else stay back?
Maybe he told them he isn't going to pass it so they should just get a breather

Because Smart's conditioning program in Col was time well spent.

We are playing dumb, no doubt about it, but we are also playing hard. THAT is important.

You know, IT is such a great kid and I'm really trying not to be negative on him but its so aggravating that he literally NEVER looks to pass the basketball.

I'd hope so, at least they'd have a reason lol
Well, if we know one thing for sure, it's that Evans isn't preoccupied with his FG% like Durant is.
Dude has 22 points on 8 shots. I wouldn't be looking to pass to Chuck Hayes either

Evans 3/4 court shot was as close as one of the 3s Thornton shot in the first half

Isaiah is the best player on the floor tonight hands down.

I can't fault you with thinking like that. A lot of players on this team share that same tendacy, but with IT it's harder to ignore cause he's the PG and his job is to set guys up with shots, not look for his own. I wish Smart would tell him to pass, but I think Smart sees himself in IT and Thorton, so he lets them slide.

You really missed the point

no kidding? also wondering why Smart just put Thornton in instead of Jimmer who was also effective in his minutes
EDIT: nevermind now we know-

Jimmer played great in the first half, but we need Marcus Thorntons Defense right now

Exactly who has complained about IT not passing to Hayes enough?

IT is having a great night, yes. But just listening to Grant, you'd swear IT and Grant are engaged to be married. My word I have never heard Grant gush over a player so much in my life.

He gushes a lot about Garcia. he's called him a "consummate professional" at least 50 times this season alone. and for how little Garcia contributes on the floor, i think that is worse
