I'll ask you one question. If he misses a game how much does it decrease our chances of winning that game or affecting the outcome? Especially when Burton gets back.

Earthisman, from your stats it is clear we should bump Naz from the starting line-up in favoeek:r of Jordan Ashton.
While he does have a flatter shot, he rarely misses in warms ups so I would not place the blame there...up until 2 games ago, he was hitting at that 40% clip we as fans have kind of expected out of him, but last 2 games he has struggled and he doesn't seem to get the amount of looks per minutes as Naz or some of the others do to get in a great rhythm..I think his overall game has been great this year and I think the shooting will end up his best season so far...This is correct. Matt's shot is a bit too flat(barely). That's why he has many shots rattle in and out. Changing the arc of your shot is VERY difficult if you've done it for years.
So fans can rip MT for not shooting the 3-ball well (35%), but we can't knock Naz for shooting 33% from long range?These non-con games are supposed to be stat stuffers. I don't see either of these two percentages improving much come conference play.
I like what Hallice brings to the table. He'll be stealing minutes from both MT and Naz as the season progresses.
I prefer him on the court over Thomas. He seems to hit open shot at a much higher rate and play better defense. I've seen him and Monte combine for a few steals and transition buckets.
I don't care what the stats are every time Thomas is on the court I find myself yelling at him.

I don't think that is why. He has had 2 games ( exhibition and Chciago State) where he was 6-7 ( or close to that).. He would be the first to tell you he just needs to keep shooting and get his rhythm back...Ridiculous statement considering Naz is still recovering from surgery which is likely the reason his shooting has been off. Plus, too few games have been played to draw any conclusions at this point.
