I have to think that both Archie and Anthony have done everything short of "go Bob Knight" on the kid, and he still doesn't get it. I thought he had fixed that flaw when I saw him play before the new year began, but then at the last home game, I saw him do it again. The ball was so high, he could practically have licked the d@mned thing! Makes me wonder what Archie and his staff saw in him, that he doesn't possess such a basic PG skill as how to control your dribble like a D-I player.
And it goes back to an opinion I've voiced more recently: it seems Archie was more focused from 2015-17 on "winning games now" than "developing players for the long haul". Crosby's lack of development, DD's finally coming out of the shadows this year, and Landers's limited playing time last year (and I know Landers was hurt for part of that time, but...) only reinforces my belief in that statement.
