Two good reads

When we talk about our three point shooters, we don’t often talk about Frank Mason. The dude is nearly 50% from 3. Graham is 40% which is above average, except on our team which also tells you something. Mason is 7th in the nation in assist to turnovers and Graham is 8th! That tells you alot. Keegan had a nice little article about them.
And a trip down memory lane about that last shot in the Davidson game in 2008 with this interesting factoid. Self wasn’t sure Curry was going to succeed in the NBA!

@wissoxfan83 We have two of the best guards in the nation. These two remind me of Napier and Boatright from a couple years ago.

@wissoxfan83 Frank has always been a monster. I was in awe of what we had in him last year when he was the only guy that showed up to play against Kentucky and showed us near-flawless handles. While the length crushed us that game, the pressure on-ball never did. What a breath of fresh air from the Naadir/EJ/Tyshawn era. I appreciate those guys, but man, Frank is a true ice-cold PG.
His sister’s high school coach swore to me that Frank had not yet reached his potential a few months ago. I believed him, but I think this year we’re seeing it. Between his decision making, speed, and his 3pt shot, he can be damn near unstoppable.
Bring on the KY-decimation.

@approxinfinity KY-decimation sounds dry…

Before the season started, I recall Self being asked who his most-improved player was and he said Frank and Perry. Looks like he knew what he was talking about!

@DinarHawk Hopefully their season ends like Napiers and Boatrights!
