There's partially a chicken egg thing going on too though where if literally anyone else would be good at all he'd get more space. Phelps was finally fairly good tonight but most of the time we have at least one guy on the court that defenses don't even have to worry about.

He needs to play better but we have to find a way to get some production from somewhere else on the perimeter.

We're WAY too easy to guard right now.

Yep

There a reason guys like solo and Andy are almost always open from 3

Other Teams want those guys shooting 3's

The reason the Wade posts are happening is because deep down...people believe he is better.

I am hoping the law of averages shows up in the first round of the NCAA Tournament and he goes off for 6 straight games!

Maybe we just need to let Wade go hero mode.

I glanced at the number of shots he took last year compared to this year and he shot more than 20 shots a few times and ended up with 30+ points in those games. Yes he's a high volume shooter, but he also gets to the free throw line.

In the last 5 games, he's averaged almost 6 assts which includes his 1 assist against Florida. And not to mention that he's turning the ball over less than last year, but I think it's because he had more responsibilities last year. Incidentally, Phelps turns the ball over more; his assist/turnover ratio is less than one, while Wades is almost 2.

So what if we make Wade the only ball handler and let him create for himself, shot efficiency be damned?
