You're thinking about this too rationally.

Other comps don't matter. JB's tendencies are the only things that matter.

We know every season JB has a player (sometimes more than one) towards the tops of minutes per game in all of the NCAA.

Look at the roster. Who's the one guy JB trusts unconditionally? Who's the one guy 1-4 that's a known quantity?

Pencil Girard in for 38 mpg.

Now, we also know JB values shooting. Look at the roster. Who is the only player that has a track record making shots?

It's Joe again.

Is there anyone else 1-4 that can score?

Nope. Jesse also doesn't count because we don't prioritize getting the ball inside.

So where are the shots going to come from?

They're going to come from JG3.

Given what we're hearing, is Benny gonna get shots? No.

Given Symir's game, is he gonna be cranking up shots? No.

Is JB gonna trust freshmen forwards and guards to put the ball in the air? Maybe, maybe Mintz. That's it.

Look at this coach, with this roster, and this player in JG3, and the dude is never checking out of the game, and he's taking as many shots as he wants.

And we know Joe likes to shoot.

Magic combination of minutes + green light. That's what matters.
