Andre Stringer is our shooting guard and he is tiny. But he makes a ton of threes and works really hard on defense. He brings some senior leadership.


SouthOfSouth - I agree with almost everything you said except for the part about Stringer and defense. He might "work hard" but he is a liability on defense. If it weren't for his awesome three point shooting he would be on the bench.

Stringer was one of our better on ball defenders dude. Hickey was the one that got abused on defense all year. Hickey could steal the ball and played the passing lane like no other but he couldn't stop someone from getting to the goal if there were 2 of him.

Stringer and Hickey set the tempo on defense. Against some taller SG's his height can be an issue, but he doesn't let people by.

I will stand by my comment on his defense being notable because I think it can get lost in the rest of his game.
