The Case Against the Captain. #1. This is a common occurrence this year. #2. The Captain's poor shooting this year allows his defender to double, without fear of being hurt. #3. You may have noticed a similar defensive strategy employed by the Hornets in the 4th quarter of our recent game. #4. This doesn't show up in stat sheets...except for the fact that we have the 27th ranked offense. #5. This never happened last year with our departed shooting guard. He drew double teams.
