Dolezaj's future

[bozophobe]

I'm bullish on Braswell.

Jumps like Jerami Grant, but might stay 4 years.

If Marek had a better handle, he’d be a lot more versatile as a player. He needs to work on his ball handling and speed. And eat lots of McDonalds.

He's actually demonstrated a handle a few times on the fast break. I just wonder if maybe the staff doesn't want the ball sticking in his hands too long, even if he is capable of handling the ball. He did play point guard when he was younger, after all.

Potential for Ryan Blackwell type numbers: 11 points, 7 rebounds, at best IMO.

The few times that Marek has dribbled the ball to get to the basket, he's looked better than a few of our starters.

Keith Van Horn

Is this real life?

Is this real life?

or just a fantasy?

 

[Zelda Zonk]

I think of him as a slim Draymond Green. A facilitator and Swiss Army Knife.

It was posted out of reference to a poster who made the following post prior to his arrival in 2017

"IMO this kid is more likely to be 1 and done than he is a 4 year guy. Stunned people don't see that he would have dominated HS gyms if he was American. Kid would be 5 star

He will probably be our 3rd best player this year... and quite possibly our best next year. Keith Van horn w more athleticism. "


He is a good hard working kid however. I think 10ppg is about his max, but he does other things well with the ball.

Ah. Thanks for the clarification.

Do you think he will ever be a top-three option on offense that consistently creates his own shot and averages close to 20 ppg, or is it more likely that he will progressively become a better and more efficient role player/glue guy ( i.e. sets up teammates well, makes the open shot off the catch, gets offensive boards, creates turnovers)?

Will he ever be a top option depends on the talent brought in. Same could be said just about anybody though. He will be a 20 guy though. The combination of points, rebounds an assist. That is a very valuable player.

 

[moqui]

he has the skill set to produce bobby lazor @ asu type numbers ...

but i question whether he has the assertiveness to take his place & demand the usage among a bunch of talented teammates even if he is the more gifted one

 

[orangecuse]

What's next, Glenn Sekunda at PSU.

 

[tbonezone]

he's no star. but he's a guy you'd like in your program. not starting at center tho...

Yup...skillset will be there, his mentality to be a scorer may not be

He doesn't pump fake enough for a Syracuse stretch 4/5.

"Come, my son. I will teach you."

 

[kuethstheman]

Duany was a flat out player .. he could have been a star if we needed him to be but he was 4th option at best

Surprisingly, he's one of my all-time favorites.

 

[tbonezone]

true. kueth duany accepted his role and filled it well. brought everything you want. skill, smarts and heart.
