[PauliePeppas]

Well ur not even “pretty good” Jon

 

[Janner]

Wow... what revelations. I just don't know what would we do with out this hard hitting analysis.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

But Donnie is now 7’ tall

 

[kcsu]

very fair assessment

 

[sufan59]

Reading through the tea leaves here, perhaps he couldn’t identify a go to guy because we are actually running offensive sets and not iso ball in practice.

OR he’s being nice and JJ isn’t an all acc player

"From the Bowels of the JMA Wireless Dome" is the title of my next fanfic about Red and Fran. They discover a Phantom of the Opera like figure disrupting practices in the Dome.

Spoiler -

Spoiler: Spoiler

it's Brent Axe.

He lives in the bowels of the Dome.

That part's not fanfic.

For how we built this team, unless Freeman becomes a superstar in Year 1, the to-go bucket is going to have to come from Lampkin.

I GUESS if JJ suddenly can hit a 3 off the dribble or Bell can put the ball on the floor then maybe?

Why does Rothstein sound like this? 50's Announcer Voice Over Services by Andrew Helbig

 

[DilemaCuse]

Fair assessment, but what's with his head nod and then raise the eyebrows every 2nd word?

 

[Cuse181]

Really going out on a limb there!

 

[two3zone]

OR he’s being nice and JJ isn’t an all acc player

And Freeman.

This didn't sound great.

 

[tptcuse]

I'm sticking with Chris Bell as my prediction for the go to guy.

 

[Cuse181]

And Freeman.

This didn't sound great.

Nope.

 

[kcsu]

JJ can get a bucket

 

[Lukeyloo]

For Rothstein, someone who has checked out just about very team already, to describe our guys as “pretty good” is rather concerning.

No, you can tell when somebody is that dude regardless of how the offense is being run.

Rothstein's opinion is weightless but what he is saying has been my biggest concern about the season. I think we are a high floor/low ceiling team (somewhere between 8/9 seed and NIT) unless JJ made a huge leap or Donnie is a top five pick. Either are definitely possible. Don't think anyone else has the potential to be special because I just can't include Chance in my outlook until I see him on the court.

I'm excited for the exhibition Saturday to learn something about this team. I'm ready to believe.
