[QUOTE="AZis, post: 1500030, member: 746746"] So what exactly do you expect from our 1st or 2nd player off the bench? 10pts, 5reb, 2asst? Is there a single player in the B1G that averages 3 steals? Our entire team only averages 4.4 steals per game. Out of 22 steals for the entire team on the season, Damonte has 4 of them.... Coach U isn't just throwing him out there cuz he is a polite young man who walks old ladies across the street. There has to be a reason..... Are you not watching any of the numerous videos where Coach Underwood tells us exactly why Damonte sees the floor? Bottom line, 5 games into the season is way too early to be getting down on any of our players. I fully expect Damonte's numbers to improve to the point that most everyone is happy. My memory could be totally off. But wasn't Damonte a starter at the 3 for us all or most of last season? I am confidant Underwood is figuring out the best usage for him. [/QUOTE]
