I know a number of you posters are not enthusiastic with Kelly's performance this year. Yes, he does get erratic at times with shot selection and turnovers [see opening game] Part of that is because he's looking over his shoulder and trying to make things happen. However, he's an important assess because he is the best defensive guard on the team. He is long and quick enough to handle shifty guards. When he's out there on the court, the team is much more potent defensively. Offensively, Kelly and Hand are the only guards on the team that can drive to the basket and create foul shots. Kelly gave the Eagles a boost that led to victories over the Johnnies and G-Tech. I truly believe if he took Zackery minutes, than I believe Earl is giving the team a better chance on winning ACC games.
