Please take the talk about wives to the off topic board
I think you're misunderstanding what I mean. They will have to share some time on the floor together because they will be both be getting around 30 min per game. That means there will be unavoidable overlap of floor time. During that overlap they will have to figure out how to complement one another. Beyond that, one should always be on the floor when the other is out to facilitate the offense. We should never have both out of the game at the same time. I was not saying we needed both on the floor at the same time in order for them to be successful.
I sure hope not.
I mean you wanna bring Starling off the bench so I don't know if you have the best take on our offense
I'm willing to give him some rope/time, but I'm not sure we are getting the JJ everybody thinks we are getting. Based on last year he was a player that needed to make improvements to be better than Girard. If he's limited from the perimeter it's going to be extremely difficult.
I'm thinking about Starling and Mintz playing fewer minutes together as well. And one of them coming out at the 16 minute time out allows minutes for one of the high ceiling backup guards.
My main point is that our two best players have very similar skill sets and we’ll have to figure out how to prevent exactly what you’re saying above from being our offense. We will be so completely predictable that it will be incredibly ineffective.
Calls for benching Judah freaking Mintz after one exhibition game where he scored 20 points!
He was wildly inconsistent with his play last season. I hope he’s matured and he’s learned from last season but would it be that shocking if he wasn’t?
Double screen high, with either Starling or Mintz with the ball on the opposite wing. Bell/Williams/Taylor in the corner opposite the ball.
People are crazy with these H0T Takes after two exhibition games. I wonder how Sherman and MCW ever drove into the lane all those years with their defenders sagging off them because of their bad to mediocre 3-point shooting. Lol. I’m happy to finally have some talented guys who can get into the lane on the team. That used to be our bread and butter.
This is exactly the same video I posted. It’s not even remotely close to his form and confidence now. That is gone. I hope it comes back, but right now it looks like a problem.
Your H0t Takes were some of the craziest I’ve read, mainly about Bell.
I’m wondering if they were trying to get a higher release point out of him, or he made his own adjustments knowing he’d have trouble getting a shot off because of the low release point.
I’m not a big believe in changing form if you can make them. I think he would have got enough off based on his athleticism and made his fair share with that form. Now everything is a mess.
I agree with not changing the form if you’re making them, but if he has aspirations for the NBA someone down the line, either at prep, ND or maybe a trainer told him he won’t get shots off at the next levels and he had to. I’m not saying this is the case but it’s the only thing I can come up with.
Benny is what he is. If your season rests on Benny, don't bother watching. Also how many teams have 3 or more shooters on the court, besides Villanova?
Most of the top teams do. Baylor. Kansas. Miami. Alabama. UConn. Those are just the teams off the top of my head.
