You know..you could live with guys like Bowen if there were other players
on the bench who had any kind of offensive games...but...ahhh, forget it.
Bowen's just a miserable offensive player and Mishra's right...they all
need to go including McCarty if you could get anything for him. McCarty's a
"cute" player and yes he hustles and yes he gives it his all....but the
bottom line is that on a good team he's buried at the end of the bench
until "garbage time." Same with Bowen. Why did Pitino sign Popeye? Battie?
I still haven't bought it yet. Another crappy/rainy day in the northwest.
