It is interesting how injuries can effect different teams, both positively and negatively.
I would preface this by saying no one wants to see anyone get hurt, at all.
But in my opinion, the best thing that could have happened to Arky was for Fland to get hurt. No doubt Fland is a probable lotto pick, but Arky plays a much more team oriented style that is allowing the recent success we have seen, something that was missing with Fland in the lineup.
With Fland, Cal's offense centered around waiting for Fland, generally speaking, to do something. That is not the case anymore. Players are now more involved and better understand their roles. Davis has taken off with Fland out of the lineup.
As a comparison, UK is lost without their PG (and granted they don't have a backup either). It was embarrassing watching UK try to initiate offense in the first half against Ole Miss and second half against Arky. They couldn't handle the ball pressure above the three point line.
Just interesting to see the differences in how injuries can affect teams.
