At least 20 ppg, people.
Do the math. Make an assumption about shooting percentages. Then an assumption about how many and which types of shots per game. When you do, tell me what the formula looks like for how Joe gets to 20 ppg. Also, probably wouldn't hurt to layer in an assumption about how many minutes per game Joe's going to need to take the number of shots needed to get to 20 ppg.
It's gonna happen everyone.
Is it me or are most of these Rothstein takes legit? No exaggerated length and a lot of topics we've been discussing! Feels like Armageddon, just sayin'.
I’m going with:
Judah - 13 points, 5 assists
Joe - 17 points, 3 assists
Bunch - 7 points, 4 rebounds
Benny - 8 points, 7 rebounds
Jesse - 16 points, 10 rebounds
Symir - 6 points, 3 assists
Taylor - 5 points, 4 rebounds
If it makes any better, I originally had Benny for 5 and Jesse for 9….but then I figured our team rebounds totals were kinda low so I bumped them up.I doubt Benny averages 7 boards.
I *seriously* doubt Jesse averages either 16 or 10 - but especially 10 boards.
Since the time of Coleman & Owens, ONLY Melo & RickJack have averaged 10+ boards for a season.
Etan had 9.3 one year.
Rak was next highest at 9.1.
Nobody else higher than 8.x.

Rak also averaged 17.5 pts, but he was the focal point of our O that year.
(RickJack averaged 13 his Sr year)
Here we go indeed... Jonny Flynn but taller. Lol
Maliq Brown, 4th forward.Bunch and Taylor will only play up front, so they basically split the three spot. They could also play together. Mintz and Joe start with Symir and Copeland backing up. Who backs up Benny is the biggest question. I don’t see Carey backing up Jesse, maybe Benny.
I figured out how it could be a positive instead of a negative for the team's success for Girard to take a ton of shots.At least 20 ppg, people.

Yeah, feel like I point this out every time we have a good big man. The one thing that could happen is Jesse getting to 15/16 per game because we can’t score outside of he and girard. That could definitely happen. Not trying to be Debbie downer — honesty, I’m not because I don’t know how this will play out — but if the frosh are raw and struggle a bit offensively and Benny doesn’t take a massive jump, Joe and Jesse will be the offense.I doubt Benny averages 7 boards.

He didn’t, but a lot of Joe’s success last year was because defenses also had to worry about Buddy and Cole, both of whom are gone now. Credit to him for capitalizing but expecting him to shoot 40% again is a pretty high bar.He led the ACC in 3 point shooting last year?
“We gave games away last year. We’re so much different this year. We’re going to play 9-10 guys. We’re faster. We’re quicker. We’re better.”
Nothing earth shattering. I really think Symir is being slept on though.

umm, that is a quote by JB, not RothsteinEven if it turns out to be true, Rothstein over hypes recruits more than Peter Gammons.
Hes a really good player. Great handle, physical, knows how to run an offense. If he can find a shot he will play a significant role. I like our guards as they are all extremely talented and each player brings something different to the floor.I agree. I wasn't all that excited about his play the first 2/3 of last season, but I think he really took some strides at the end. I don't think he's on the cusp of greatness, or anything nuts, but will be a nice vet presence that should, hopefully, be a guy that can get some things done and act as a calming presence on a fairly young team.
