I think your points are strong. In your reply you mentioned what I was wondering: turnovers. My only gripe with LC is that he isn't really much of a point guard. I think of him as a 1.5 guard. He is a point guard who seems to think his role is to score. And I will not be overly critical of him, becuase it is his scoring that is easily his best asset. I would prefer to see more assists and less turnovers, even if it meant he didn't score quite as much. -- XAVIER MENS BASKETBALL

[> [> I actually think your post proves an earlier position I held: Lionel would be more effective as a two with only some time at the point. Unfortunately, unless Finn turns into a stud real fast, I don't see Lionel getting that opportunity this year. -- Homeskillet, 13:16:25 09/06/02 Fri

[> [> Every player has his strengths and weaknesses. Lionel has room for improvement in many areas, but he is already a very well rounded player. People have complained about every point guard that we have had since Stan Kimbrough. Jamal might have been our best, and even the coaches constantly complained about him. PG's have it tough. Most players are remembered as seniors. (Cont) -- Snipe, 14:23:32 09/06/02 Fri

[> [> [> LC has the tools to penetrate and make his own shot. He has a great outside shot. He has explosive quickness. He has all the raw physical tools. If he could find a way to average one more assist and one less turnover per game, his ratio would be better than 2:1. It will be interesting to see how he develops this year. Lenny Brown is a Xavier great, the point of this post I guess is that LC is one too. -- Sniper, 14:23:58 09/06/02 Fri
