If Lemon wasn't the point, no one would pass him the ball.

After watching tonight's game, I am not sure Lemon would get anything but mop up minutes if he was on WSU.

I'm not sure how anyone that has seen both players could pick Lemon over FVV. Fred is a more consistent shooter, a much better passer, and turns the ball over much less. Has Fred had a bad game this year? Not sure he has. While Lemon has had several horrible games.

I don't know if Lemon has better stats or not. Obviously he has the points advantage.

I don't think there is one sober person here who would rather have Lemon on their team than FVV, though. Including Bradley fans.

Missouri St. and I'm sure there are a few more, but even then, he's still more than salvageable.
Thoughts and prayers to WSU finding a new conference.

Lemon would play for WSU. He wouldn't start over FVV, Baker, or Cotton. The problem with Lemon is he isn't a good enough ball handler to be a PG, not a good enough outside shooter to be a shooting guard, and not tall enough to play the 3. As they were talking about on the radio last night, he is a man without a real position. This came from WSU's radio, but was brought up to them by Bradley's radio guy.

I know you guys love Cotton, but pretty bold to say you would play him over Lemon...Lemon with FVV and Baker would be a SICK guard set!

On offense, definitely. Defense would take a huge hit though and probably outweighs the added points.

Probably one of the top 3 defensive guards in the country. Don't listen to me, listen to the national experts.

I would take everyone one of WSU's starting guards over Lemon.
