Our Guards

I often hear it said that guard play is the key to championships. Is there a better guard tandem in the country than Frank and Devonte'? Both score and both defend like junkyard dogs. In my judgment, these two lads can take us a long way down the road.

Seriously, this is setting up rather well,

So true, Doc. We've suffered through years of guards who might have been talented but who were consistently careless with the ball.

It is a relief to have Frank and DeVonte as our floor generals. Rarely do either throw the ball to...............nobody.

Looking at stat lines- Perry and Georges basically canceled each other out with very similar stat lines. Comparing the Morris stats from game at ISU to yesterday's shows that OUR guards did a much better job of controlling THEIR guard. Same scenario for the Texas game. Since we have 2 guards playing better D on the engine of these teams with one elite guard one of our guards should be fresh enough on any given possession to make an impactful offensive play!

Point confirmed- along with the emergence of Landon at the 5, the improved D by our 2 guards (all Big 12 defensive team) is the major development from the early season that allowed us to repeat as league champs!
