Think of the number of guys that have put up either career performances or games that were well better than their norms. Grooms, MacGruder and Spradling, Williams and Nash, Jackson's 20 pts and 15 assists on 10 shots, Scott Christopherson, even Taylor was having one of his better games of the year until he turned into a turnover machine late.
It seems like the lead guards for most of the conference teams we've played this year have played much better against us than their season averages.
When it happens a time or two, you wonder if you're just getting unlucky and getting some tough shots. But when it becomes fairly routine you have to ask yourselves if it's not something you're doing defensively.
