Less is More?
Dick Vitale suggests Minnesota will be better off without Kris Humphries. He compares the Gophers to the Yellow Jackets -- no doubt more successfully after Chris Bosh's early entry to the NBA Draft.But the Yellow Jackets had several returning stars. The Gophers don't. Georgia Tech has an incredible coach and, with all due respect to Dan Monson, Minnesota doesn't.
Vitale's rationale:
With Humphries this season, the other Golden Gophers often stood around and took pictures and watched him do his thing, making them easier to defend.
Maybe. But I'm inclined to argue this is wishful thinking. More often than not, you're worse off after the departure of your leading scorer and rebounder.
