Did Malcolm run outta drugs?

Come on guys, MD graduated from our university, gave us 4 yrs. He doesn't owe us anything & our university provided the means for him to get his degree. Wish him the best in whatever he does.

As MemphisTigerPawr said, Dandridge was supposed to set a screen for KD and didn't do it. That's what the scuffle was about. Good riddance.

Maybe Dandridge was just taking it upon himself to change the play---the same way the guard did more than once in the season.

The poster said thats what "likely" cost us the win. Regardless of the screen or not --with seconds left --if the guard doesn't make the stupid cross court pass----and just dribbles to get fouled --we win the game----or if he just passes up the court to a wide open player we win the game---or if the refs give us the T O we win the game.

MD was told to do a specific thing, he didn't, we lost. You're saying there is no correlation, the poster said that a correlation was likely. I agree with him.

Best of luck to ya, big fella!

Mixed feelings about MD leaving. I wish him the best and thank him for the years he played as a Tiger. Having said that, it did get frustrating watching him at times. He seemed indifferent, slow, lazy? Anyway.....best wishes for future success!

First time I saw him and JW playing in a HS tournament I actually thought he had more upside potential than JW. It's been hard watching him struggle to be successful here. Hope he finds success elsewhere. He has an NBA body.

So the WHO guy is upset with Malcolm leaving ? Yet he bashed Tarik Black and others that did way more ? Comical

I wouldn’t have made that public lol

Hate to see Dandridge go, personally. He worked hard to get into shape prior to last season and was playing pretty well until the ankle injury. I was hoping that he would do the same this year. With he and Kao gone, do we have any bigs for the upcoming season? Not going to be a good season if we don't.

And KD was told in several games to do a specific thing and didn't do it.

Several? I remember one off the top of my head that was revealed in a post-game presser. And we won the game because of his efforts. What other instances do you have documented where he didn't do what he was told?

Best of luck, Malco. Would have loved to have seen what you could have done without all the knee issues.

HUH ? Upset ?----My posts have been to point out (IMO) that a lack of a screen is not the reason we lost the game-----rather the reasons I listed.

As the primary ball handler, you’d think KD has much more freedom to improvise. Especially if a play isn’t developing as expected. MD had one job. Set the pick.

Does it matter? To you it shouldn't. That's his opinion, which is just as relevant here as yours, and probably more so since you are usually proven to be wrong by all measurable means....

Did I state his opinion wasn't relevant ?

Did I disparage the poster ?

I simply asked a question.

You on the only hand was true to form.

Do tell !

Please share .

If we have/get another 'big' that is as good or better, that's fine.

Who do we have in the post for next year?
