I agree, Pace is a good one that’s only been mentioned once or so - his ability to only take shots that he can make translates effectively to any type of b-ball, and his automatic mid range floater is a perfect weapon for pickup ball.  In fact, people used to say both Pace and Edelin had “old man at the Y” offensive games based on their smarts and their ability to get in the lane and make those floaters.

Since I listed him and he hasn’t been discussed, I’ve gotta expand on Michael Lloyd.  Good, but not great player for us for one year.  I do think he was one of the more talented guards we’ve had even if that didn’t fully come out.   He did overall a pretty good job at the PG though his shot selection and decision making could get erratic- and we had a senior Moten at the 2 so there was not much opportunity for him to play off the ball.

I think if Lloyd could’ve ran the two on the right team at Cuse, he would’ve been a 20 ppg type scorer.  He was strong, quick, explosive, good handles, and could finish at the basket - and a decent shooter too.  I think he had a lot of the qualities that Devendorf and Waiters had.  I would’ve liked to have seen what he could do in his second year at Cuse playing the two alongside a great distributor like Sims.
