But, leaving Josh out of the equation because he only scored dunks when someone decided to pass to him, here is an interesting set of data:
Our 4 starters minus Josh shot 37% from 3 point. Not too shabby.
Inside the arc minus Josh, those same four starters shot 56%. We have a pretty good foundation of shooters to build on with more on the way. But again as you said, no reliable playmaker. Cohill has the look of a playmaker.
More than anything our stats show what a drag on our production our bench was.

Yeah, and in my mind, that was the mark of the lack of a playmaker. When the defense broke down we've got guys that can shoot. But when the defense was sturdy we just passed the ball around hoping for the defense to make a mistake; no one could force the defense into a mistake. When there wasn't one, we turned the ball over.
