Best case scenarios

[tower912]

Kam:  15% better ball handler and creator for others.
Stevie:  improved ballhandling, hits open 3s.
Joplin:  quicker release on jumper, more consistent.
Ben:  Henry, Joey, and Sam's skillset in a blender, with Oso's heart
Chase:  Health and steady progress.
Amadou:  6'9 230 lb Barro
Hamilton: Theo
Tre:   Mayo's skill, Junior's brain and court vision
Zaide:  more Kalkbrenner blocking.   Steady improvement
Owens:  Claude's athleticism and Scheierman's 35% 3 pt shooting.
Parham:  Ben Gold path, with less length and more bulk.
Sean:  healing

80% of the best case is a return to the sweet 16. (Match ups not withstanding)  90% is elite 8.   100% is the final four.   

If everything falls into place, all the pieces are such that next season could be even better.   Yes, nearly everything has to go right. (cockeyed optimist that I am)   It will be nice to see the full court pressure again.   And I don't think Hamilton and Amadou can currently play at the same time in Nevada's offense.

[We R Final Four]

More concerned with Jop's D or lack there of than any part of his offense. If he continues to get beat off the first step and teammates need to cover him....it will limit next year's team.

Have more depth so if Jop plays like the last game, he can be benched for either freshman

[Johnny B]

Chase needs improved ball handling and serisiisly needs to learn how to drive and finish through or around traffic

[WarriorFan]

Amadou, Hamilton or Parham develops a reliable 3.

[BCHoopster]

Chase needs improved ball handling and serisiisly needs to learn how to drive and finish through or around traffic

He also is very left handed dominant, needs lots of work, no jump shot just a set shot.  He has enough athleticism to improve, get into the gym!

[ATL MU Warrior]

He also is very left handed dominant, needs lots of work, no jump shot just a set shot.  He has enough athleticism to improve, get into the gym!

If you are strong enough, which he no doubt is, you can shoot threes without needing to have a pronounced jump. His shot form is darn near perfect, good idea to mess with it.

Hopefully the walk-ons improve enough so that they aren't hurting our NET when they come in.

It's why we lost to St. Thomas

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

1) Kam, Stevie, and Tre take on increased ball handling and playmaking duties to offset Kolek.

2) Kam stays super efficient on slightly higher volume.

3) Stevie, Chase, Jop, and Gold increase their scoring to replace Kolek and Oso.

4) Owens and Parham can contribute as freshman like Kam Jones and Justin Lewis did.

5) One or two players surprise and reach co-star level.

not bad...but did your write-up on Ben come after a double shot whiskey & 7?

[tower912]

I rarely drink.  And I believe Ben is that skilled.  He just needs confidence.

[BCHoopster]

I am fine with his set shot from 3, but like to see some mid range game with a jumper or floater

[tower912]

Why do you want him benched?

You should see Ramsey's highlight film from the Polytechnic.
Looked every inch of 6-4

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Oh, so you haven't watched a single game the last two seasons.

No never watch

FookinA man, attempt at humor...lighten up.

[Big Papi]

Tre needs to be the starting point guard and be above average at it.

Need to find someone who can be an interior post scorer and defender.

Don't belittle my feelings.   I feel diminished.

[tower912]

I am impressed that MU will likely be heading into a season with a roster with 3 seniors, 3 juniors, 3 sophomores, and 3 freshmen.    Once upon a time, that was the kind of balance a program would strive for.

Yessir.  It's incredible and a reason why I believe they'll be a good team again next year

[tower912]

It also makes the recruiting needs clear.   Need two guards and a forward in the 25 recruiting class.

[The Sultan]

No never watch

We know.
