His "me first" mentality when he's at point is why I don't like him.
Generally, he only seems to pass off when he has no other choice. Some
nights I've seen him actually try to upgrade his assist stats, but
most nights its get the ball, dribble to the middle and see what
happens. He's a mini AI to me. Lindsey's basketball IQ is 100 times
higher than Flip Murray's and while Lindsey may be 2 or 3 steps slower
now, he's still a very good point guard on the defensive and offensive
side of the ball. He's much more complete a player, a better team
player than Flip. My hope is that Stuckey is more in the Lindsey mode
than the Flip mode.
