Message: [QUOTE="TinyManInside, post: 2615034, member: 1251"] Honestly if Hughes is as good as JB is claiming, then I would absolutely want Bazely for the upcoming season because Hughes would fit right into Battle's slot. JB's best teams have usually come when he has a pair of dynamic multiskilled forwards (Coleman/Owens, Wallace/Burgan, Warrick/Anthony, etc). Brisset and Bazely together had potential to be right there with them. Personally I suspect a large degree of hyperbole on JB's part with regards to Hughes, and that totally changes the equation... hard to turn down Battle's 19+ ppg (even if it isn't achieved particularly efficiently) and that level of experience. [I have to say that I am pretty bullish on Bazely as a multi-contract NBA player, something I'm waaaay less confident in with regards to Battle. But the better NBA player doesn't always translate to winning more college basketball games, even though usually it helps ;)] [/QUOTE]
