Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 2095600, member: 40"] 100% correct. We had a one year gap between Sherman and Autry. And in addition to the PG, we had Owens [who at 6-9 was like a guard handling / passing the ball], Coleman [who at 6-9 had an incredible handle and vision as a passer, and could also shoot out to three point range]. We had Stevie Thompson, who couldn't shoot but excelled at taking it to the rack. And after that, we had guys like David Johnson and Lawrence Moten who could also handle the ball. That's lots of versatility, not even factoring in the PG, Alsacs. Went more offensive variety? Recruit better inside players, or coach them up to be better. That will give us offensive balance. Coleman MIGHT have been able to provide some of that, if he'd remained healthy. Thompson will when he gains a little strength. But right now? The principals are all perimeter jump shooters, with a dash of Battle's ability to score in the lane mixed in. [/QUOTE]
