Carter's shot just wasn't dropping early in the season, and I'm guessing he just hasn't gotten the confidence back in the shot. Honestly, to be a factor in the Big East and in the tournament this year, we have a confident Carter doing his thing.
He doesn't need to dominate games, but he does need to stop passing up open jumpers.

Rick made a great point on the last Dana & Victory podcast - that Carter is overextending himself and/or fading on a lot of attempts at the rim as opposed to trying to play through contact in the hopes of at least getting to the line (where he is excellent). Apparently this was a big part of his game at OU. More FT attempts from Carter would go a long way.

Honestly if through the offense we get these guys good open shots, I hope they take them. Otherwise things are going to continue to be clogged up for the other players.
If Carter continues to be an observer on the offensive end, we need to explore other rotations or options.

Well I think that the SJ games shows that the STARTING lineup doesn’t really matter. The lineup during the LAST 30 minutes of the game is what’s really important.

agreed and I think both Carter and Moore need to realize that they have to take the shots, make the moves, foul or be fouled and let the coach decide what to do. James shots were not that great, but he made quick decisions and that is the only way to play at this level. We how have more proven depth. Amazing stat is that we only had ONE steal!! I saw a number of potential steals by Naj, Q that ended up in the hands of St johns. Carter who I like had no business playing 35 minutes, he needs 20 hard minutes and he willl be fine.
