Rowsey at the P.I.T.

[wadesworld]

Good luck in Lithuania.

He will see 0 NBA minutes in his life, which there is nothing wrong with.

[Floorslapper]

Good for Andrew.   I loved him as a Golden Eagle.    I don't see him playing in the NBA.   To me, he is akin to Davante Gardner.     Prolific scorer.   Too small to defend his position in the league.    Unable to score against the athletic size he is likely to see every night in the NBA.    Ox struggled against athletic, strong 6'11 guys, which is every post defender in the NBA.    Andrew struggles against  quick 6'5 guys on both ends of the floor, which is nearly every guard in the league.    If Brunson isn't a lottery pick and some question his long term prospects in the league, how can you say with a straight face that Rowsey has a legit shot?     Has a world class skill.   Will struggle to use it against taller, quicker defenders, just like Davante.   And, like Davante, I think he will get paid to play overseas.

But that doesn't mean I don't appreciate everything he brought to MU.    Love the guy.

I can also agree with this assessment.  However, I don't think it is absurd to think Rowsey might get a few looks in the NBA.

And..it is a credit to Wojo for recruiting him to MU - and seeing the potential. 

Rowsey goes on my favorite players at MU list along with Davante, Jae, and Aaron Hutchins.

If Rowsey goes G League route it is possible he could be a prolific scorer

If Archie DeAcano (spelling) can get a 2 way contract.....Rowsey certainly should be able to.....

He has a talent NBA teams value and unlike most in college basketball.....He already has pro range +.......

Why?  Archie is a better player.

Ryan pretty good, too, hey.

First, his first name is Ryan, not Archie, and the last name spelling I believe is Arciadiacono.

[4everwarriors]

Archie Bunker wuz pretty good two doe, hey?

[Floorslapper]

On what basis?

[fjm]

On what basis?

I'll bite...
1) don't lump me in with these rowsey haters you are talking about? Because I think he's amazing and will miss him next year very much.
2) ryan could defend.

Rowsey is just the next guy that Ners humps in every post.  He has no clue.

After bashing Wojo for bringing him aboard and saying John Magic Johnson Dawson was a better player than him.

You got it.

We were just a few feet from "Archie" at the Bulls game a few days ago. He is significantly larger than Rowsey.

[Nukem2]

Yep.  Not even a doubt there.

[brewcity77]

Rowsey's team lost the Final, 91-90. He had a disappointing night, 2/8 from the field for 4 points, but did manage 9 assists and just one turnover. Final stats:

PPG: 15.0 (Tied for 14th)
RPG: 2.7 (Tied for 61st)
APG: 7.0 (5th)
TPG: 2.0
3PFG%: 38.9% (7/18)
eFG%: 56.1%
FT%: 88.9% (No Matta)
MPG: 26.3 (Tied for 29th)

Seems like Rowsey certainly played an effective point guard. Scored efficiently, created for others, didn't turn it over. He was one of 12 members named to the PIT All-Tourney Team. If a few more shots had fallen in the final he may have come away with MVP honors which instead went to Jaylen Barford. Good showing, hopefully it helps him to a successful professional career, wherever he ends up.

How did that Predicted Sweet 16 appearance go for you in Year 4 of Wojo era?  Do we need to pull your outlandish predictions on what Wojo would achieve by Year 4 and 5?

Who plays in the G League...

[brewcity77]

Who plays in the G League...

You say that like it's somehow impressive. He averages 4.3 ppg in 14.8 mpg. He's a deep bench backup in the G League. The only way he ever gets close to the NBA is if someone buys him a ticket.

https://basketball.realgm.com/player/John-Dawson/Summary/57006

Almost all his statistical averages are lower than the average G League SG, and let's face it, the AVERAGE G League SG isn't close to the NBA.

Please do. Don't recall any prediction about 4 years down the road but I'd love to see it.

Who plays in the G League...

Congrats? That's not really an accomplishment. I haven't even heard of about half of the Wisconsin Heard roster.

Who never played a minute..

Most of G-League rosters, guys getting minutes, are guys who were very good college basketball players.

Yet again, another thread where I don't bring up John Dawson, but the usual suspects just can't help themselves.

And Rowsey blew away Ryan Acridiacano's numbers as seniors.  To say Ryan A was a much better player is just stupid.  What Ryan A has over Rowsey is height.  Nothing more.  And not nearly the shooter.

So you think Rowsey is a better defender than Arcidiacono? For someone who pretends to be the smartest basketball mind on Scoop...yikes.

One guy was a Big East POY. The other was an Honorable Mention All BE player. Now not only does Ners know better than Bazz and Wojo, but also every BE coach.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Basketball is played on two sides of the court.

Arci put up his numbers for a national champion. Rowdy for an NIT 2 seed. That is an important distinction
