I know what you mean
@cardvolfan I also dislike the overall absolutes most of these more casual posters seem to have. Like one bad game does not a trend make.
I love this team and most the players on it. Huge fan of Santi, most of you have seen me go to bat for him over the last four years in game threads or even in here. But not a single player on this team is a perfect player. Santi for example is a great shooter, but he can't create his own shot and he's limited at penetrating to the basket. All things he's obviously worked on in his 4 years here, he's better in those areas now than when he arrived, but he's still somewhat one dimensional as an offensive threat.
Turner was quicker and better at driving than Santi is. Lofton was better at it as well and Lofton was better at creating his own shot from 3 because of that dribble drive ability.
But Santi is a gritty player, he works his tail off on defense. He's our best screener and uses screens better than anyone on the team. He should be getting far more calls as well because of how often his defenders simply grab him when he's using screens. I'd actually like to see him work a bit more at cutting to the basket for layups off some of the screening action he's involved in, feel like it'd put even more pressure on his defender and the opposing team's big to help. Georgia did it to us a few times where they'd using a guard to screen then cut to the basket.
