Can’t read shite on that link but I did see 25 and 18 point games back to back that you claim are sub par. Lol so a 25 point game is sub par? An 18 point 9 assist game is sub par? You can stop embarrassing yourself whenever you want.

Damn near 48 percent from the field is NOT subpar at all...

3pt % is slightly low, but nearly 6 assists per games and more than 2 steals per game... How is any of that subpar?

Well when you lie about what I’ve posted then yea I’m gonna call you on it. I’ve never once cited any 7 games I’ve posted and used his entire 52 game career so you did lie I didn’t.

Of course you cant. How convenient. It's all just a lie anyway. Basketball reference makes up numbers to benefit Lester Earl on Tigerdroppings

That's definitely 38%, not 48%.

What would you call that?

Yeah my bad, read the 2pt % line... Still wouldn't call that subpar, pedestrian or average maybe.

But you also can't extrapolate not great shooting, to not being a good player, see the other stats I brought up

It's detrimental to the team to hoist 6 3PA per game at a 29% clip tho. Half his shots were 3point attempts at a low rate. He lead the team in shot attempts. That's how you get to 38%.

Meh, in a vacuum sure... On that team, he just didn't have the horses around him (Mays was not the same player last year that he is now, especially when it comes to finishing)...

I'm not saying he doesn't take some maddening shots (because he definitely does that), but I don't think his stats accurately reflect his impact on the game (he makes assists that we simply wouldn't make without him out there).

He's kinda an enigma... Like he's torn between being a creator and a scorer

Lol the fact you can’t see the irony in that post is beautiful. You called a 25 point game sub par an 18 point 9 assist game sub par. Well how about 21 points on 7-13 shooting 3-5 from 3 vs the national runner up is that sub par too? How about 39 on 13-22 shooting vs Marquette is that sub par too? What about 17 points on 50% and 60% from 3 vs a sweet 16 team is that sub par? How about 17.9 ppg 6.9 assist per game on 46% shooting vs tourney teams last season is that sub par too and that’s including a 5 point 2-12 shooting performance vs Bama. You’re a joke.

that definitely was a problem last year, but he has a quality of being able to make other players better, even mediocre ones, and he just kind of dumped that last year to try and be the guy. It's especially harder for someone that size to take that on, and it really showed last year.


the numbers are there to interpret. I respect your opinion

And to be fair, he did shoot 41% last year as a whole, which is slightly below average, but I'm okay with it... He's up to almost 45% this year

Kinda hope he sticks around for another year because of his height

cherry picking 5 games is a long way from only using season and career stats.


and while your aimlessly ranting, I have never once said in this thread that any particular game of his was subpar. Interesting talking point you developed there, though.

Here we go with the straw man again. A. I used 9 games vs ranked teams B. I used the other 5 as examples of games you claimed were sub par and were exactly the opposite. You can’t make an argument t on merit or truth so you create straw men, try to walk back comments and flat out lie. You’re a joke

He had an insane out of conference last year, much like he is playing right now, where he shot 48%fg and 44% 3pt over 11 games. And he ended the season on a nice 3-4 game stretch too

But that has been Tre's problem, inconsistency. Hopefully his recent play is what he is.

Oh no doubt he was inconsistent as hell last year, and he got more inconsistent down the stretch (which I'd be willing to bet was at least partially due to fatigue)...

He's been more consistent this year, and hopefully that play is here to stay (I know he didn't have a great shooting night against Mizzou, but he did other things well)
