How come Scotty gets called for bad body language...

I do understand that point. Scotty is the best player on the team. He shouldn't have the look of "moping" and "pouting". But still, that doesn't excuse the rest of team in my mind. If it was just once or twice, then it wouldn't be an issue.

The "moping" with Hopson is more of just an illustration that he's not mentally tough. We've got other guys that don't have that problem.

I agree. He's gotten better though, but he does need to get tougher mentally.

It's just a weakness of his. He has a lot of strengths, but that just isn't one of them.

And you made an excellent post earlier. This could have been stopped his freshman year, but didn't. Now we can't afford to have him off the court.

That's not bad body language. That's no emotion whatsoever and he needs to be on the bench. There's a difference between that and Hopson looking like a 4 year old drooping his shoulders when he isn't playing well.

Scotty is good but not great...... He lacks discipline, confidence, leadership, and the ability to put this team on his back and completely take over a game. All GREAT players have all of those characterisics and abilities..

I want to say that I think people's perception about Scotty's body language is skewed. That's just the way he looks IMO. Whether he's scoring 25 points or bricking every shot, he's going to have droopy eyes, a slouching posture, and he will drag his feet.

You know how Digger Phelps and Colin Powell just look angry all the time because of the way their faces are built? Same concept.
