[QUOTE="Deleted member 29907, post: 1253414"] Eye test just makes me believe Tate has been more fortunate with the passes he does make - ie. players are sinking more shots percentage-wise (OR - maybe it is because he holds the ball so long that by the time he does pass there is no other choice than to shoot). I just do not get a 'wow' feeling with Tate handing the ball and making passes. Plus, since he is not a scoring threat, he must pass if we plan on scoring. TJL is making better, setup type passes. Tate has been given much more court time to get comfortable. I think TJL has played better in several games already - to me that indicates he should be getting much more time. I fear we've wasted alot of non-con play time that could have been used to get him the experience he will need for conference play. [/QUOTE]
