Politics? Could someone please explain what politics went on. If we're talking just averages, I thought Rhodes deserved it last year, he did lead the district in scoring avg. If you want averages for this year, compare these:
Tucker 17.5ppg; 5.2rpg
Rhodes 17.1ppg; 7.8rpg
Chard 15.3ppg; 5.8rpg
Rhodes and Tucker both create a lot of scoring opportunities for each other and make great teammates.
Tucker's defense this year has been suspect and Rhodes is a much better defender than anyone wants to give him credit for. Without Rhodes, Tucker gets doubled and is not as effective; without Tucker, the same holds true for Rhodes. Both are completely different players; one is finesse and the other is a bull. If this were a game of one on one, I would go with Tucker, but its a team sport.Can you folks just get off Rhodes and go on to something else. All 3 of these guys are class acts. We have heard your opinion for like the 4th time now. The Coaches have spoken but maybe they will agree to a "do over", in which Mathis from WC might get it.
