I think the comments about too much dribbling is more attributable to having an import PG, Winder or Shannon. If you watch enough college ball I'm sure you'll see the trend that has been sneaking in there. I put it down to the longer shot clocks and the 'over' coaching done at that level with multiple cuts, leads and screens off the ball.

Shorter shot clock games (NBA / NBL / Euro) have slightly less dribble and then you have the cultural styles where Aussie ball doesn't see the PG dribble as much.

Lastly, what a stupid thread, Balls has been a valued servant to Adelaide and the NBL, and is now an Aussie. Long term involvement and improver, and should, like Mark Davis in previous years, evolve to become the second, third and fourth choice option.

he is not overrated he is a great player who is playung out of position and struggling with playing against the bigger bodies if the coach starts playing Daniel Johnson more in tandom we balls his game will improve especially since now the sixers have got a pass first point guard

yeah same here, shannon waits till 12 on the shot clock then runs this half assed pick and roll. ballinger doesnt want it enough, 6 or 7 shots is not enough he needs offence run for him. We saw him on the low block heaps with blalock on him and he wasnt even commanding the ball. dissapointing tonight where was howard in the over time? On a good note though carters 3 was awesome i nearly ran onto the court, havent cheered like that since the farley days.......

If he got the ball on the odd occasion... instead of our guards dribbling around for 20 seconds of the shot clock??? Is about time we had an offense run for him. is our best scorer by far. Clarke's offense is too much about the dribble.

How is he overrated? It seems every week we look to dump on someone over something. Bet if we had won the game, his game wouldnt have been part of this forum.
