    Sorry you couldn't have gone for Nate… unless I am blind.

    I voted for other. I think Steele is the biggest factor to the success of this season. He needs to make better in-game decisions to help this team when they are struggling.

    Guess I'll have to go with "other" since Nate didn't make the poll. 3 pters and tough defense.

    I vote other. Steele and crew have to find a way to thread the needle and get 17 pos 10 Reb 5 assists from Hunter, Stanley Miles, Kunkel ,Tandy(even) combined. I thought that underutilizng players like Welage, Griffin, Miles/Ramsey(even making Tandy a total non factor) were a result of indecisive coaching and playing a losing hand too long over the last few years. We have seen lower bench players kill us over the last couple of years (Horcher, Baddeney, etc) because the other coaches did not try to ride out the storm with known quantities. The players mentioned (except Miles who I think will surprise) have all performed at high level in big situations and should not be wasted. That 17 p 10 Reb may come out of someone else's numbers but so be it.

    I am left to wonder….who is “other”?

    “He” has the most votes at this point.

    The title says player. Are we talking about someone else, because that’s obvious.

    Scruggs. All the other pieces fit in nicely but when Scruggs is the leader X is a different team, after the game if you felt like you don’t remember much from Scruggs it generally meant a loss. He is the key

    Apologies. I inadvertently left off Nate Johnson. I could add him in now, but it would throw off the results.
    "He's a little bit ball-dominant, he needs to have the ball in his hands, and he's not a good shooter." Ball-dominant … isn't that a nice way of calling someone a ball hog? Where is my Jay Bilas Thesaurus?

    Other. Nate Johnson. X needs a reliable, consistent outside threat.
    We've come a long way since my bench seat at the Fieldhouse!

If the Post Defense alone is improved and everything else remains constant(which I think we will see improvements elsewhere), I see this team improving in the win/loss column significantly.
    Agree wholeheartedly with this.

    We need an offensive presence in the post to balance the offense. The offense doesn't have to run through the post, but we have to have 1-2 guys that we can throw it into that we can get a bucket. Otherwise, welcome to last year where defenses smothered the perimeter.
