There's a reason the big boys didn't recruit him hard. Watford was great in a state that produces very few D1 players!

He shouldn’t be taking short runners.

Take the ball to the hole. Get fouled or score a much higher percentage layup or dunk rather than one of these 10’ flailing runners where then there’s no one around the basket to rebound the impending brick.

Or get called for the charge like he always does.

He’s not used correctly, neither is Days. Wade is turning us into the Houston Rockets of college basketball where it’s 50 jump shots a night. There’s no reason for someone like Watford or Days, who shoots about 80% from inside 15 feet, to not be getting close to 10 post ups a game. With their hands and skill using them in the high low game should be a given but we”ll never see it. What you guys are saying about Watford is true but a big part of the problem is what he’s asked and allowed to do.

I agree with you 100% on how to better use watford and Days, but has it occurred to you that they (ESPECIALLY watford) refuse to play that way?

One might say "well bench his arse". But then you COMPLETELY lose trendon for the rest of the year by doing that. I would imagine, you can't "tell watford shite" about how to play the game. He has one foot out the door as it is. At least you have a puncher's chance to win something if you placate him.

Then again, I'm not there. I'm just relying on what I know about young, spoiled athletes, and human nature in general.
