Nobody is more affected by Alleyne sucking than Murphy


Storm is getting him wide open looks every other possession that he's bricking badly enough that they miss the rim. The defense can also sag off Alleyne to stop penetration and switch at will because Alleyne isn't a threat to score from anywhere on the floor.

Storm didn't shoot well, but he hit the biggest shot of the game. He's asked to do a lot more on offense than Cattoor so him only having 2 turnovers in 30 minutes isn't a bad stat.

To be fair, the entire team with the exception of Mutts was awful in the 2nd half especially on the defensive end. Murphy isn't the kind of player who is going to dominate a game, he needs the guys around him to play well to be effective. If we wanted him to be a dominant scorer like at Wofford he could shoot a lot and those numbers would go way up, but our overall efficiency would suffer.
