I don't want to come off as negative or a hater, the dude has skills and is obviously better than I'll ever be.

But right now he's a liability, he turns it over a ton and shoots 90% of the time he touches it even when he is open. His shot is real flat which means he's a very streaky shooter, but even when he's off he shoots a lot of low percentage I'll advised shots

I dont see this at all...sure he has an awkward shot and hasnt been shooting well but thats basketball. Youre gonna go through hot and cold periods.

But I dont see him as a liability at all cause he does so many other things. He rebounds very well for a guard, brings lots of energy, plays good D and deflects a lot of balls.

I dont see him taking many ill advised shots either. He actually passes up shots sometimes that he maybe should take....ill admit I thought he would score more based on how ppl talked about him but eventually that may come. But LSU is definitely a much better team with him on the floor than not.

This is what annoys me. People come out of nowhere in basketball. People thought the team would be good so they jumped on board...2 losses and everybody sucks...huge win and they're back on board saying stupid STUPID shite.

How does he turn it over too much? We had 24 tonight and he had 2. He's averaging less than 2 turnovers a game. He's shooting 35% from 3, it'll probably end up being around 38%, and 42% overall. He's getting better the more comfortable the team gets. Also, ugly form, but he does not shoot a flat shot...I honestly don't know where you get that.

I guess also we're just not talking about how he gets more than 5 rebounds a game, averages over 2 assists, and has nearly 2 steals a game. Naaa we don't wanna bring facts in here, we just wanna shite on him because he's a white guy with an ugly shot. There's no reason to hate on Hornsby AT ALL
