My guess is that Mchale is telling him to keep shooting. He's obviously not confident and gets rejected and turns the ball over all the freaking time. Where's that swagger Foye?? You gotta find it, especially now that Al's hurt and out for who knows how long. We don't want to be laughed out of the freaking league do we?? A lot of it's on Foye. He really needs to figure out that A. When he's shooting 30% he's hurting the team and B. he CAN help this team in more ways than just scoring.

I don't understand how you can fall off so quickly after playing the way he did in January. Could it be the minutes wearing him down or is he just that streaky?

He went from feeling it to feeling the pressure? He just has to find a balance of driving and his Jumper. He seems to be relying on hi Jumper right now.

I think he needs to figure out to finish before he can balance the two. When he drives he loses the ball gets blocked or misses the layup. I can't remember the last time he finished a layup that wasn't on a fast break.

Thanks for contributing Sejanus. sarcasm is so rare on a message board.

We need to level out our view for Foye. We seem to go from messiah to garbage with every game. Lets see how the season finishes before we make a proper assessment. Shooting slumps are not uncommon.

He's playing a ton of minutes. He may be a 3rd year player, but he's already at his career high in minutes. He's also back on the ball more than he should be with Bassy's leg injury limiting his minutes during a stretch of that time.

On a non sarcastic note, with Al out, we will get to see how Foye, and all the other Wolves, perform with the big man drawing their defenders away. I doubt the next couple of months will be very pretty, but it could prove instructive.

The lane should be a lot less clogged now. Let's see if this helps Foye with finishing his layups

Madsen and Cardinal will have to set pick 24/7 to make that happen. let's hope they won't get dizzy doing that

wow, whats with all this foye hating, he was great in january and now hes lost his confidence you all hate him, stop being so fickle. He has a chance to step up without Jefferson there and prove he can lead the wolves out of this slump. Im surprised he has any confidence at all. Injuries, playing out of position and constant comparisons to roy that is not a good recipe for a young developing player. Without Jefferson Foye is now the number 1 guy on our roster, this will go a long way to seeing how good he is
