Fair enough. Don't get me wrong I love me some Austin, but Landry will be back, Duff will return and a bunch of 4-stars will continue to play Marshall basketball, which is balance, balance, balance. -
Even if Landry and Duff are gone he's not averaging 20.Originally posted by SHOXAAC View Post
Not going to engage in a pissing match but I'd like to understand why someone thinks this would happen. It just doesn't under GM's system.

While I’m excited to see another Shocker in an NBA uniform, I would be more than excited to have Shamet and Duff back next year.Originally posted by SHOXAAC View PostComment

I wouldn't have a problem saying next year if Austin gets 20-30 minutes a game he will average 16ppg.Comment

I wouldn't say Austin couldn't average 20. I mean Landry was averaging over 16 until his slump.
1) Austin is a more willing shooter than Landry.
2) Depending on who returns he may have to carry a serious load.
3) If Lomax is who we hope he is Austin will be playing with a true pass first point guard.
4) Very, very inexperienced inside presence.
I agree Gregg's teams are typically built on balance but never say never. Gregg's teams are usually built on defense as well but this year is all about the O.Where oh where is our T. Boone Pickens.Comment

GGG's teams are also built on *winning* and I have a feeling if scoring is what is needed, Reaves can provide it. lolComment

I vote we never play zone again. The only thing worse than our man to man defense is our zone defense.Comment

Agree, the Fesno that we attempted vs SMU was not executed like it was taught in practice 4-5 years ago. The guards are supposed to be on a rubberband with one on the ball and the othe rin the FT line circle. We had the off-ball guard crossing over behind the ball pressure guard, very late in the sequence. Not smooth at all.Originally posted by Mr. Pickle View Post"I not sure that I've ever been around a more competitive player or young man than Fred VanVleet.

You can test the waters twice. This is why Landry didn't do it last year. Once after the Soph and Junior years.Originally posted by Slykryck View PostYou miss 100% of the shots you don't take....

Gregg’s team is losing his two “defensive stoppers” who have zero offensive skill. Unless we have some 4s and 5s step on big time, we are going to be forced to suburban HORSE it unlike anything Gregg’s career has come even close to seeing. His “system” will hopefully have a major overhaul next year or we’re gonna get owned.Originally posted by BostonWu View Post

If he does average 20 then that's probably not a good sign for things to come and I don't think that's where we're heading.
Contact me me if anyone wants to engage in a healthy wager. I'm game.Comment

I think it may be possible that the leading scorer of each game will average 20 or more, but I don't think that any individual player will average 20.Originally posted by [URL="https://shockernet.net/member/813-andshock"

Baker averaged 11 shot attempts in 32 minutes as the #1 scoring option his junior and senior year. Reaves is averaging 10 attempts (70% of those from 3) in 27 minutes since the Tulsa game as the arguably the #2 option behind Shaq. And that’s on a team with Frankamp and Machine Gun Willis. He’s a much more efficient scorer than Baker and IMO, much more willing shooter.Originally posted by BostonWu View Post
His minutes and shot attempts are going up next year regardless if Duff and Shamet come back. If Duff and Shamet leave, 15+ attempts a game is possible. If the splits remain fairly consistent (70% from 3) and he regresses in percentage made to say 45% (back of career avg), that still about 14 points on 3s alone. Reaves is an elite scorer at this level. In just watching games, he seems to have more freedom in the offense to take shots more than anyone on the court. No way that changes next year.

Don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but we will be seeing SMU on Fri in Orlando with Shake Milton. That game scares me. The number 1 seed will have a much easier semi final opponent, but will first have to face SMU with Shake. Yes, I'm assuming we beat Cincinnati next Sunday and quite honestly I feel a lot more certain of that then beating SMU on Fri.Comment

Just means he has saved up all his ridiculous trick shots for us again -
well, they love playing in wichita.. all of them. smu no less.
even though a good conference, with scattered pro potential all around, this is the closest they will get to an ACC environment. they love to come in here. and take advantage of it.
