I will agree and disagree with this


My post below touches on it. it was not necessarily about being aggressive or passive. His last team here had Allen and LeDay back from redshirting, Bibbs, Robinson playing, Clarke and Hill (varying degrees of injuries i know), Blackshear... There were several scoring options and degrees of people being a boss with the ball, i..e. Allen and LeDay.

BAsketball is about math. 5 people on the court. The more that some touch the ball and shoot, there less that others will. Yes,Hudson had the ball in his hands many times that he could have shot, driven or done something other than pass to someone else. but if you are on a team in which everyone has a greenlight and everyone will shoot, your ability to get 20 points every night will be limited. You will have swings just like Bibbs and others have.

And there are games in which certain players get the ball EVERY time down the stretch. This year Blacksher was fed the ball every possession in one game (Pitt?). People got on Bibbs for not scoring much but how could he when the directive was to go inside.

Allen and LeDay took alot of shots, some ill-advised and forced. I know Hudson was inconsistent. But some of that is not about him and is about the math of other people shooting more.
