Wanted:

[Upstate]

Swingman. A 6'5"-6'6" athletic true 3 who can take someone off the dribble, slash and make and shoot over an oncoming opposing center. So limited by a stretch 4 like Southerland, who can't handle the ball. CJ is a great piece at the 4 and rebounds well from there, but a true, athletic 3 is one thing this team needs.

 

[SWC75]

A swingman who's a true 3?

Actually I think you're looking for BJ Johnson. But that's next year.

 

[OttoMets]

I'd settle for a shooting guard who's careful with the ball and consistently gives us 12 or 13 points while shooting better than 40%.

Though it was startling to watch a few recent games and have the thought "We miss Kris Joseph" cross my mind.

 

[capeorange]

How about a center who can consistently make point blank shots and can control the paint on D?

 

[CorduroyG]

Someone who can make an outside shot.

 

[Nicknack]

Someone who can make an outside shot.

Hell, I'll take someone who can make ANY shot. It's not just from the outside. I can recall MANY missed opportunities down low as well.

Ugh...I know what you mean. Joseph was maddening at times, but at least he could shoot at a reasonable clip from outside.

 

[OrangeTown]

Rocketballz that are Rocketballz-ier.

Ugh...I know what you mean. Joseph was maddening at times, but at least he could shoot at a reasonable clip from outside.

And he got reasonably consistent with that ability to hit a 15-footer while drawing the foul.

Hopefully either Silent G, Patterson or BJ will be that guy next year.

This team needs a Rick Jackson/Daryl Watkins like Center who is somebody who will do the dirty work on defense or be able to score with his back to the basket, and it needs a Demetrius Nichols/Wes Johnson small forward who can shoot the ball and isn't a gunner on the court. We are flawed this year, but let's just hope we get lucky and go on a run.

A Rick Jackson / Darryl Watkins type center? What's that? It's like "swingman who's a true 3".

 

[senorpalmer]

stuff, I'd settle for Marius Janulis and Ryan Blackwell.

 

[Opus]

Just give me Rafael Addison. Thanks.

 

[Jasoncuse]

I knew when Kris graduated that he would be missed more than most people wanted to admit. I just didn't realize he would be missed THIS much.

Not only does this team miss a 3 than can shoot and slash to the rim, but it would be nice if we could have guards that could do the same. Having two 35+ minute per game guards that can't shoot kills this team. If they could slash and score inside consistently, it could make up for the shooting woes.

 

[OrangeCrush22]

Tyler Roberson and BJ Johnson please come on down.

This team needs 3 1/2 new players. The 1/2 is for Grant who is on the cusp and could go either way.
