In a lot of ways, I'm reminded of Brandon Paul when I see some of the negative posts on here about Curbelo. Kid played hard, really tried out there sometimes doing too much and as such would force things at times and take a bad shot or make a bad pass. Even when he'd play amazing for us people would still find ways to criticize him thinking that somehow he'd magically be turned into that perfect player who would average 30ppg, 8rpg, 5apg and 3 steals per game on 90% shooting and 0 turnovers when in reality he'd get you 15,5,3,and 2 each night with some turnovers. He was a solid player but people would just go out of their way on here to skewer him for anything he did wrong. Now part of that is that high end promise and talent he'd show so expectations were always wanting the world from him so you always fall short of it. Part of it is it's easy to see turnovers and bad decisions. But I can't say it sat well with me. Andre Curbelo has a lot more talent than Brandon Paul but just like Brandon he'll never be perfect, but when he's out there playing hard, hustling for rebounds and loose balls, taking charges, setting up his teammates for high quality shots, and doing all he can to try willing us to victory, he's pretty great. There are times to get angry with Andre Curbelo's play, just like there were with Brandon's, but when he plays games like he did today, I think you need to think long and hard about what you actually expect out of him because it is likely that most current NBA players let alone college players won't live up to those beyond lofty expectations. In any case just my two cents.
