Same question as I had for slushy ha… what was the exact question asked, and what was the answer?

The whole the pg is the qb answer seems kind of deflecting. Of course the pg is the qb. Our pg isn’t creating enough for others and is taking way too many shots..

I understand sometimes stuff happens and you get late in the shot clock and have to chuck a shot…. My question is, why isn’t the guy chucking a shot Butta? Or Toney? Or Ortiz? Or even Yax? I think I have more confidence in every other guy that plays having to put up a quick shot than EG (minus JD probably).

That would be my response to AK.

Yeah I agree.

And AK is always rambling off numbers and stats and seems to know the game forwards and backwards, FWIW. So he HAS to know the trend of the team being undefeated when Gaines takes less than 10 shots and only being .500 when he takes 10 or more.

Yet here we are. The coach letting him tchuck it up left and right and do dumb sh!t all over the court all game long.

AK knows the numbers and the trends. But he hasn’t done anytbing about it.

Name a Coach anywhere near Andy Kennedy's caliber that would coach at UAB...

You should let him coach his team. I promise you he knows a lot more about it than you do.

A guy getting paid millions to coach basketball knows more than me. Shocking. That’s the level of dumb*** retort I’d expert from someone with that username.

The Button is your friend.

UAB Now 8-0 when Gaines takes 10 or less shots

5-7 when he takes more than ten.

EG was LAST in the American in effective field goal % among qualifying players before the Memphis game.
