Dixon seems to be like a better version of AB. He is super tough on the defensive end and can set the pace for a game that needs to be sped up a little.
I needed a thread to vent my frustration from last night and I think I found it. First I agree with Cowboy. But here is what really bummed me out last night.
Dixon was "looking to get his" in the first half, played press defense well but after that did not stay with his man. To the OP , I think he has more natural ability than JJ.
Jackson- so what does Joe do in the second half after being irritated with Dixon's selfishness, 'fereezes him out" on about 6 consecutive possessions down the floor. Looked him off every time and threw to the other side. It was like deja vous to when he was a freshman.
I'm sorry, but I see the same dramatic bs that lead to the loss against SLU. Joe has matrued a lot but not enough, he should have led by example, that bs will get us beat against a very good team.
As far as his play, I thought Joe was the hardest working guy on the floor and he can be what Turner and EP were as juniors/seniors.
I would be curious to know if Cowboy, Easterwood, Jason or JM saw what I saw because that petty bs needs to be nipped in the bud.
OK, blast away at me now but I had to vent.
