Meh, we'll see.....Until we get someone who can consistently break a press and handle the ball, I'm not buying just yet......I don't care what anyone says, losing Devion Smith hurt......

I don?t understand the reasoning behind automatically thinking D Smith would have helped with breaking the press with any level of consistency. There was a reason we had to stop using him at point. However I do agree we still more help in the area. I just don?t think D Smith would have been the answer.

Absolutely he was inconsistent but who do we have that?s better? The answer is, we don?t and it?s very late in the game to get anyone that is going to be better.

D. Smith was the best we had last year breaking the press. He got better throughout the year. Expect he gets better next year.

Molinar picked his dribble up too soon and would TO, DJ dribbled too far out and being 6-6 tough task. He also made lots of bad passes. Hopefully they both improve here. Smith was ahead of both knowing when to dribble drive and dish. Having a good burst drive in half court like DJ and IM have is total different thing that breaking the press.
