Oh, and if anyone says, "What about Aboua?", look I love Alfred to death. It's not possible to have that guy on your team and not love him. And he has the mental toughness needed, the same sorta guts past Howland players have had.

But to be the actual tone setting leader, you also have to be a guy who can really take it on the court and dominate. Afflalo, Farmar, Love and even Mbah a Moute, with his D, were game changers, and Collison with his quickness, and Shipp with his versatility, are the same sorta way. Aboya gets what he gets off of effort and toughness, and that's not enough to lead a team that otherwise lacks mental toughness.

Aboya needs to be able to say "This is how it gets done" and then goes and does it. Since he can't do that, we are where we are.
