Ben is a damn good role player.  He just never made the leap to star this team unfortunately needed.

Its too bad his shot has disappeared, because it is overshadowing the fact he's been good and improved in pretty much every other area of his game.

first call needs to be to Brad Stevens. Make him say no.

I'll probably be there, pending family issues.

Quote from: GB Warrior on Today at 03:40:29 PMI'm reading a 6 mo recovery for partial tear. Chance it's a Bahktiari situation of course but it's a very different injury

Becoming radicalized?

Quote from: #UnleashMalik on Today at 03:53:59 PMWell crap, if caedin learns to do a post move, we might win 6 more games.

Hell while we're at it, let's go get a monstar to sap the talent of uconns player and transport it in a basketball to the AL.

What are we doing here?

That's a tough analogy. Ben has made shots in the past, Caedin hasn't.  I see no reason why we should just give up despite his severe issues.  All I'm saying is it's not impossible that he starts draining them. 

Quote from: Tha Hound on Today at 03:53:58 PMSure, he is absolutely necessary for this abomination of a team, but he is not "playing well in pretty much every facet of the game." Take a look at any stat line, advanced or not, he's just not good enough.

craps crazy that a guy averaging 8 points 6.5 rebounds per game on 37% shooting percentage is considered playing well. Weve jumped the shark on this season.

Quote from: BM1090 on Today at 03:40:51 PMAgree with your first statement.

But he's not a bad player. He's a guy playing well in pretty much every facet of the game except making outside shots. He's a solid player struggling with his shot, amplified by the lack of talent and experience on the rest of the roster.

Ben has regressed in every single stat except usage, shot attempts, and rebounds (1.5 more per game!) From last season.

Its time.

Quote from: MuggsyB on Today at 03:47:49 PMIf Ben finds his range we may win more games than people think.  I get he's been a disaster shooting, but you just never know. 

Well crap, if caedin learns to do a post move, we might win 6 more games.

Hell while we're at it, let's go get a monstar to sap the talent of uconns player and transport it in a basketball to the AL.
