I tend to agree. Even the best PGs have errors in judgement

at times and all make their share of mistakes. I believe Andrews is going to be a very good PG and he has already improved immensely since the start of the season. Many are comparing him to one of my favorite Bruin PGs of all time, Darren Collison. He is a bit bigger than Collison and IMO, an equal to Collison as a defender. However, I don't believe he is is fast as Collison and not yet as accurate a shooter or as good of an assist man as Collison. However, he is developing into a very good PG, IMO, and should be even better next year. One thing I know from experience. Good judgement comes with maturity and lots of experience. The more Andrews plays, the better his judgement and decision making should be.

Some comparative stats of Andrews vs Collison in their sophomore years.

Collison: 33 minutes per game, 12.7 PPG, 48% from the field, 45% from three, 81% FT, 5.7 assists per game.

Andrews: 35 minutes per game, 12.5 PPG, 39% from the field, 33% from three, 84% FT, 3.8 assists per game.

So the stats show that Andrews has a way to go to be considered in the same class as Collison. But he is moving in a positive direction, and has shown improvement over the year and particularly so as a scorer in the last 6 games. In those last 6 games, he has averaged a little over 22 PPG and 4 assists. That's a good sign of things to come.
