That's not true at all. Being a captain doesn't mean taking the most shots or carrying the heaviest load on offense, it means leading by example, working hard, doing the things that you can do to help the team win games. That extends to recognizing your own weaknesses and playing the game accordingly.
The example Davis is setting for our younger players right now is that it's ok to ignore your own mediocre offensive repertoire and take as many ill-advised shots as you like. Our coaches, management and senior players are preaching team-oriented, unselfish basketball whilst one of our co-captains - a man who has never been and should never be anything more than a role player, a fourth or fifth option on offense - has a usage rate that dwarfs the likes of Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant and Lebron James.
I'm still surprised that people want to defend his current approach to the game.
