    Stewart looks like the fucking hulk on a basketball court. It’s legitimately scary. Oh and he’s legitimately a good 3 pt shooter

    Bey/Carter/McDaniels share ball handling duties, lots of pick and rolls with Stewart. Bey moves to first off bench/defensive stopper when Quade is eligible

    While I like the idea of getting carter and bey in the game at the same time this ignores how shitty of a ball handling team we were last year. We couldn't break a press or half court pressure. I can't handle another year without a point guard.

    Carter is a scorer, not someone you want setting the offense. That line up would be an absolute turnover machine.
    I dont think there is anyway to get around the fact that Hardy AND Carter are both going to heavily be relied upon at the start of the season as ball handlers.

    Not good

    Hardy played like 20 TOTAL mins last year (why he didnt RS?)

    And Carter, who really played much better as the season progressed, is still basically a athletic guard that struggles to shoot and has a tendency to revert to playing like he is in high school trying to out athlete everyone again.

    When is Al-Quade going to be available to play for us? It will be interesting to see how Hop deals with the fact that the 1&2 guard play is likely going to be really really poor to start the season.

    Chinned for Al-Quade. Good chit

    The development of his 3pt shot will be massive for us next year because it’ll allow Hop to play him at the 4 against teams with more size.

    We’ll be an elite rebounding team if we’re able to have Stewart, McDaniels, and one of Timmins/BPJ all on the court together

    Honestly if we get JMAC,which I’ve heard it’s basically a lock at this point, he’ll handle the ball a lot at the beginning of the year. He might even play consistent minutes at 1 because he is such a good passer and ball handler.

    Replacing Wright with JMAC in press situations would make me want other teams to press so we could get easy buckets. Last year was hard to watch.
