Question--when Smith and Moore played together in high school, who primarily ran the point? I'm assuming Moore? 

Not sure how the question relates but they both played the point with Moore playing point most of the time. Smith would run the point when Moore was out. 

Who ran the point when Minnetonka won state? Andy and Issa 

My statements all refer to the season ending stats getting back on topic.

I asked because I am curious whether a 3-guard lineup of Uelmen, Smith and Moore could work. Both Uelmen and Smith have experience at the 2 in high school, and Moore seems like a pure PG as far as being more of a distributor than the other two.

Let’s talk stats from the SLT. Why did Reggie end up getting a majority of the minutes over Smith? He’s better off the ball, a better shooter, a better defender, and more reliable emotionally. He was able to find himself a role with this group. If this core sticks around and Smith develops these parts of his game, he can fill in nicely for Reggie next year

Similar to NDSU at times in the game especially when we struggled shooting 3s in particular we just kept firing away.

If were going to continue to ignore the statistics, the plus/minus of the stats than that's fine.

What are you even trying to argue right now? Everyone here likes Smith just need him to take some steps in the right direction. Become a better shooter and on ball defender (like everyone on this roster) and develop more of those hustle/winning intangibles. He cares and plays hard just now channel it differently. All completely normal things I would expect for a freshman point guard

So, the only conclusion I have drawn from this is our staff "isn't using Smith correctly".  I have heard this before and it never ends well......
