If Patrick Christopher got 23 vs. AZ and 21 vs. ASU, wouldn’t he have averaged 22 pts for last week instead of 21.5?

This is great for Patrick, and he played wonderfully this weekend, but having seen those games I’d give it to Randle. He was the man against ASU, and he controlled the game against Arizona as well.
Here’s hoping Theo breaks out next week.

Agreed. Randle will have his share of Pac10 honors if he keeps playing at this level.

Yes, of course 23 and 21 averaged are 22.0. My mistake. He had 20 vs. ASU. And while I agree Randle is the team’s engine, he won the Pac-10 award a week or two back, and I’m sure the league office wanted to share the wealth a bit. Christopher certainly was deserving.
