He did play well today!! Congrats to him for doing that. I think we all wish that he was more consistent in every game. Surely, he does as well.
I think the problem with McCabe is he thinks he's a scorer and when he gets the ball his lone thought is to shoot or drive to the basket. Nothing wrong with that for a guy with the skill set to score, but McCabe just isn't good enough to play that kind of ball. If he would ever figure out his role on this team - which imho should be a 10-15 minute guy who comes in and only takes open shots and throws his big body around and gets some hard fouls - then I think he'd do so much better. I don't want to write the kid off completely but everyone seems to be grumbling about him lately and surely Fran and the staff see that he's struggling too. I hope he figures it out soon before the NCAAs.
And for the record I place no blame on McCabe on that Wisky loss. WI was shooting lights out and Iowa was lucky to even be in that game.
BTW - where is Aaron White? He looks lost out on the court and has no aggressiveness. I wish McCabe and him could switch mentalities, I think McCabe needs to tone it down and White needs to shoot the create more.
