Just ask yourself where the offense would have come from if Cumberland were not being aggressive late in the season and we had to rely on KJ to help the offense score points or even help facilitate the offense.  In some instances Cumberland was our best option late in the season to get the offense to score whether from him scoring himself or assisting other players.  KJ, throughout his career, was a stall point on offense....even if his D was very good. 


Again, I don't have the plus minus stats...KJ's plus minus could have been better overall...but I highly doubt it.  And the fact Cumberland kept getting more and more minutes would seem to suggest he was the better overall option.  Now...take KJ out of the picture and insert Jarron for the whole game and season and it could be a very dramatic change.  Not just 5-6 minutes of change...but 30 minutes of better basketball all together.


It's kind of like what happened when Evans replaced Thomas IMO.  The difference was major!  Now Cumberland is not like Evans on D but the point remains the same for me overall.
