Artis

[Pitt5593]

With Robinson's inability to penetrate, could Pitt run the offense through Artis in a fashion similar to the way it was run through Brad Wannamaker? The lack of a two guard hinders this offense. Jones and Smith give us nothing.I would like to see Johnson get more time here, but Jamie is stubborn and I think we are stuck with Jones and Smith. Wilson would also be an upgrade here. But truth be told, the big problem is on defense and on the boards - talent wise, we don't have the horses to compete upfront. Jeter, Maia, and Odo are not frontline players in this conference.

Artis seems to be lost the last few games, thought he was turning a corner, Jeter is so streaky, hit or miss with him,strictly a 3 where Artis plays.

Artis played awfully last night. I would argue his play was the most below-the-line of any of the key players.

Do you really think that the coaching staff whose spent thousands of hours with these guys hasn't explored all available options? These panthers need to out score their opponents and when the offense is out of sync their going to look bad and lose.
