We all love Malcolm but in our 3 ACC losses he has taken 48 shots making only 16. Thompson is afraid to shoot, Tobey is a defensive liability and Gill sometimes gets overmatched by opponents 7 footers. Shayok in a sophmore slump or still injured. Hall inconsistant and poor Nolte barely shooting 20%, we all cringe when he shoots (as does he). Wilkins hustles but is undersized for a 4 and struggles to do his job with also having to compensate for others not doing theirs. Perrantes is doing a great job from 3 but the offense is too dependent on Malcolm and when he is slumping our offense is hurting. He is about 40% of our offense and when he is misfiring we are in big trouble. He is forced to keep shooting and sometimes it is down right ugly, he is not the pure shooter Joe was or the athlete Justin was. We desperately need to develop another consistant weapon, we can't keep putting the pressure all on Malcolm. He also leads the team in TO's, again because he is trying to do too much because rarely are others doing their share. Next year we will have a pure shooter, maybe 2, a slasher with range, a defender and a great low post scorer/threat but this year too much is being asked of Malcom and he can't consistantly come through.
