Wasn't sure why he was doing this unless Snider was in the doghouse for something. I mean he did try to go one on one some but a lot of guys on this team do.It definitely seemed like he was giving Hicks extensive run last night to get him back up to speed and, prepare him for the immediate future of both tournaments.
Snider wasn't splitting the hedge which is the main way to be effective against that aggressive defense. Guessing it was that and the fact that Q was a step slow on D last night that got him a few minutes on the line.Wasn't sure why he was doing this unless Snider was in the doghouse for something.

He tweaked it again when he got that charging call in the lane . When he got up you could see him being a bit gimpy.I think someone mentioned that Sniders hip was bothering him as well. Certainly hope it's ok or our chances to go far might decrease quite a bit.
