a few thoughts. first, kj still isnt getting enough credit on the board for his performance. if he keeps playing like this we will all enjoy watching him play in the nba in a few years. offensively, rebounding, shot blocking he does it all. second, barnett and the entire backcourt dissapeared. this makes me think nickerson may indeed start next season over barnett. why did we not pressure the ball like la salle did to us? i think we are gonna see some major lineup changes next season with the eight new guys coming in. braswells lack of touch around the rim is embarrasing. if he makes half of those bunnies he has twenty at the half. to me kj is our best player and has the best long term potential.
[quote=“Powerbait, post:66, topic:24861”][quote=“ninerfan55, post:64, topic:24861”]i could see mayfield starting, maybe at times over briscoe but i do think that long term, briscoe is a better starter than green. isnt mayfield a point guard? barnett got shut down because he cant dribble drive and he missed a wide open three when we were down three so yeah he disappeared. hes a good player, and has improved greatly but i think that long term is a 6th. or 7th. man not a starter. i think next year we could see multiple starting lineups. ive never been as excited for a player as i am with kj. i think he could go down as our best big guy ever. yeah, there i said it. what i saw last night was a young jason maxiell. let me also ask a question. why is kj, and maybe colby, the only ones that go for offensive rebounds on missed shots?
He is not better than Cedric Maxwell or Rodney White.[/quote]
i didnt say he is, but he will be. he is better now than withers was as a sophomore. the only thing he lacks is elite height but he makes up for that with length and athletisism. i think at the least, mayfield will give us defense and athletisism, two things that are lacking from this team. nickerson should give us the length, size and athletisism and shooting ability that we lack from our small forward position. we dont lose much in terms of seniors.[/quote]
