It's the Fastest 40 Minutes in Podcasting!

He and Bowers are similar shooters from the outside(or at the very least are defended the same), but Safford’s a bit quicker and more assertive when he puts the ball on the floor. We shake our heads when he puts up bad runners, but he can get us some good looks for others with the resulting ball movement. Most of Safford’s minutes are being taken up by Ramsey and Moore, two complete non-factors from the perimeter. I think there’s at least a little trickle down effect to English/Denmon/Taylor/etc. from not having as versatile an offensive threat on the floor(or an offensive threat at all, in Moore’s case).

But I think the point Bill and I were making was that it’s hard to pin the recent struggles on his absence. You’re right about everything else he contributes, but the recent string of missed open shots by Marcus/Kimmie/Zaire have been hard to connect to Saffy.

its more shooting down the idea that all our woes are due to saffy being out. i think it might come off as hate because all the things saffy didn’t do are being pointed out but that was just to show that his impact was being a little over-enhanced. i think it was becoming a bit too easy to say we were struggling simply because safford was out.

…Except this one isn’t contested
