When? He has yet to score 20 points in a game this year. He's scored 18, once. And that is because he got to the line 18 times against our Bobcats.

He's not perfect (http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/10068006/ohio-state-aaron-craft-really-perfect)

Talking about his entire career. Since he did hit it a couple times last year, meaning he is capable of doing so at times.

I'm not sure he's capable, this year, of scoring 20 points in a game.

Definitely not at the time. Right now, he seems to have two modes. The one where he just passes the ball around outside the 3-point line occasionally shooting it from there and the one where he says "FUCK IT!" and drives to the hoop to toss up something regardless of how many guys are between him and the basket.

Which is a sentence that also could describe Scott, Smith, Thompson, Della Valle, etc.

Which is probably why the team is sucking so badly. When you don't have an identity or anything appearing to be an actual gameplan on offense, things get kind of impossible when you're playing bigger schools with actual talent on their roster.

Just proves how ignorant you are to the game of basketball. Typical kid who just see's points , dunks and gets an immediate erection. Don't understand the other facets of the game. Thanks for proving my point. Nobody said Craft is this and that. EVERY person, media, announcers all talk and know about his deficiencies. Stop making shit up and exaggerating as usual.

It literally hurts watching OSU right now--their pick and roll defense is abysmal.

Throw in absolutely zero fluidity on O.

There have been some opps for a secondary break to get an easy, open 3 for ADV. They just stand. No one goes and sets a screen off the ball. It's bad.
