How hard is to put the ball on the floor, crossover at the free throw line, and shoot a 12 foot jumper?
I often cringe when Burgess starts to drive. Rarely does it result in something good.

Murdock, however, when he drives, frequently is able to pass out for an open look. It's unfortunate it only happens a few times a game.

I would definitely be happier with an increase in athleticism at PG...a better ability to drive & finish. But given the scarcity of that at BYU, I'm happy with Murdock's contribution this year.
