Back to serious mode:

I thought he was shooting at a pretty good percentage actually.

Even as there meth head cousin, Marshall should never be in the same sentence as those two. They actually shot good percentages and helped their team win more times than not.

Oh, and Ole Miss' record with Marshall Henderson is 30-13 (16-6 in conference) so I'd say he's helped us win more times than not.

Yep, he's a volume shooter. That doesn't mean that he isn't a difference maker.

Buckner and Holloway were bigger reason for the W's, and Marshall was the reason for at least half of those losses. But continue defending a guy who barely shoots 30%. I couldn't imagine defending someone like that. Fred Thomas is shooting 27% and I want him kicked off the team every time he shoots it.

Please elaborate.

You can't just assert something and then expect everyone (that isn't a dumbass friend of yours) to take your word for it.

EDIT: And I'm a huge Murphy Holloway fan, but to simply brush aside the fact that Hendo was the team's leading scorer is willful ignorance.

He's the reigning SEC Newcomer of the year who led his team to an SEC Championship (and SEC Tournament MVP, fwiw). Just because he misses a lot of shots doesn't mean he isn't valuable to his team's success. Watch how opposing defenses key in on him. It's incredible how well it opens up the play of the bigs down low. Look at how well Reggie Buckner played against Florida in the SEC Tournament last year, much of which was due to Florida's defense covering henderson.

Oxymoron.

MTSU--L (LOL) 6-17, 3-12 3pt
Kentucky--L 5-19, 2-11 3pt
Missouri--L 4-15, 2-8
Texas a&m--L 4-11, 2-8
USC--L 4-17, 3-11
MSU--L 4-19, 3-18 (LOL)


So yeah he was the reason y'all lost 6 of your 8 games.

He almost pulled a 50-40-90 last season with 46-35-88. He shoots a lot but those percentages aren't bad at all.

This season he's on a much tighter leash as far as his on-court antics goes. This last game was by far the most animated I've seen him all season.

Explain? You can double check if you'd like. Stop being so butt hurt that your teams savior is a coked out psychopath who's a mediocre basketball player at best.

You're cherrypicking the information that best suits your argument. You're taking his worst games and using that as evidence against him while ignoring his better games.

And, guess what, in basketball, teams do poorly when their best players do poorly. There's a pretty solid correlation there. That's how the sport works. If anything, you're only hurting your point by proving just how valuable Hendo is to the Rebs' success.

How am I the one being butthurt?

Also, I have no problem with people using cocaine. I'm all aboard the "legalize it all" train, so I truly don't give a shite about what drugs Marshall Henderson (or anybody else) has used.

EDIT: And if MH really is a "mediocre basketball player at best" then you're tacitly admitting that Ole Miss is then a pretty good team with a good coach, because if a team's starting a "mediocre at best" shooting guard to a 30-13 record then, well, that's a pretty goddamn good basketball team.

My argument was that he was the reason you lost at least half of your games last year. I looked at the losses and figured out he was the reason you lost 6 of your 8 games. Sorry for actually providing data to back my argument.
