This is my first full year as fan of Syracuse basketball. Based on what I have seen I like the fact that this team does play solid defense most of the time but is simply not good enough on offense to be a major factor come NCAA tourn. However, IF we get the right draw, this team can make a run as they have yet to be completely outmatched by ANY team they have played all year (this is where the defense has been such a factor). As has been stated by many on here, I am not huge fan of either of the guards as they are waaay too streaky and the worst part is that they seem to make really poor decisions at crucial moments in the game. I watch A LOT of college basketball aside from Cuse and Baylor and I have to say CJ Fair has to be one of the most smooth and solid basketball players I have seen in a while. The guy rarely makes poor decisions and on offense seems to have the ability to score anywhere. This leads me to a few of my questions:
1) Why is CJ Fair not HIGER on the NBA radar. I feel like he barely has any glaring weakness and is a CLEAR 3 at the NBA level?
2) We will be replacing the entire backcourt next year. What are the chances that the guys replacing the current two could be better than MCW and Triche NEXT YEAR? And what are the chances the team we field next year can actually be better than this one? I am not a big MCW fan and don't think he will be in NBA for long but I have to say the guy does create a lot of disruption on the defensive end so that will be missed.
3) Don’t flame me for asking this but does anyone know how we are doing APR wise for next year? Cuse and Baylor are playing in Hawaii next year and I am seriously considering going but only if both teams have potential to do something. I don’t expect Baylor to be a tourn team next unless they end up surprising and if Cuse is not eligible then no point in going.
