    Let Travis design an offense around spacing and Gibby outscores his man every game. Like Highmark said about Spoon, outscore your man. Our offensive schemes suck. It’s about quick passes not dribbling around the perimeter. 

    had one of the all time best assist man in history of ncaa, you use him to handle the ball and pass, likely the scheme will be different without him, but you go to the strength of your players

    so doc, you arent a jimerson fan i take it?    because i think the jimerson no defense was an inaccurate assessment.  by year end i thought jimmerson was our best guard defender.   it sure as hell wasnt our all defensive team point guard that got torched by acey for almost 40 points.  

    i agree roy, he kept proper position, stayed in front of his man, etc. wasnt flashy with the steals, but that is a small part of overall defense, imo he was our best defender

    Just curious because I don’t know. I’m surprised though that Vice and Momo would be that far ahead of Bruce. I do know we need an experienced big. 

    maybe land that big pf to rebound and defend that could occasionaly play the 5 and  go 4 guards sort of french like

    Fantasy world. 
    Back on earth, there’s 2 mid-major teams in the final four along with a team from a great basketball only conference. Only one “P5” team to be found. 

    amazing 2 mid major teams in the final four when the net was designed to let as few in the tournament as possible. that is the point of the net to keep out as many as they can, it is obvious that the mid major teams can do well, but fewer even get the opportunity

    Dennis is for sure a different guy and I am pretty confident Henry is too.  I actually like Dennis.  Good guy and along with his son is responsible for one of my favorite posts on this forum.  Dennis probably doesn't think the same about me and that is okay.

    thanks brian, i am pretty sure they are different guys, just happens we are right thinkin  kind of guys. lol

    This is good news. Where does the team stand right now?

    PG: Medley, Hughes

    Off-guard: Thames, Parker

    3/4 wings: Hargrove, Jimerson, Rivera

    Bigs: Zhang, Cisse, Vice

    I'd say that's in the 6th-9th place range, if things break right. My desires are: (1)combo guard who can defend the ball, like what Demarius Jacobs could have been (2) wing 3 & d type, like Hargrove. 4/5 banger who can protect the rim, like French. All three can be 20-25mpg types.  

    i am an optimist, get three more of the right guys, lets win the whole thing

    You seem to post often. Have you posted specific bullet point reasons, why you believe in year 8 of the current SLU Men’s Basketball Head Coach? (I haven’t posted an opinion about it here.) I’m just curious. You can either post those specifics here, or you can provide a link to it. That’d be great. Thanks. 

    it has been posted often, by many

    -a question on your user name, is reflecting that you are an intense supporter of The Billikens? does it have a double meaning that you are an intense supporter of the Billikens and you donate a large amount to the ADept? is your name Bill and you are a large individual? something else? just curious how you chose that moniker

    my dad always said the guy to be concerned about is the one they call "Tiny"

    Someone offers a well thought out post with multiple examples to back up their viewpoint, and this is what you feel is the appropriate response?   You love telling everyone else how much they’re embarrassing themselves with their posts, but you can’t look in a mirror and recognize the biggest embarrassment currently on this message board.
