[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 702265, member: 1776"] As far as next season that is sort of hard to think about but here it goes. Personally I would play more 3 guard offense with a rotation of Jose, Mike, Bubba and Tristan. It's pretty easy to see a path where those 4 play 100-110 min at the 1-3. Then you could use Usher or Moore if you wanted to more traditional SF type at the 3. I agree that it would be nice to have one more consistent 3-pt shooter to go with Jose and Mike. My hope is that either Bubba (who shot almost 40% from three befor arriving at McCamish) or Tristan (who is a very strong scorer at all 3 levels) can provide that. That would help with the more dribble drive intensive offense we installed. As YI posted we need more movement off the ball off the single and double screens we set for Jose and Mike and even Usher. ironically, both Jose and Mike are really crafty penetrators. They are not straight line speed guys to the basket, rather they are more change of speed and both are good (especially Jose) at keeping their dribble alive - which with better off ball movement should lead to alot of good looks for teammates. Usher is the opposite. He is a straight line speed and stength guy barreling toward the hoop. That leaves less time for teammates to move, but when they do they tend to have really good looks as defenders collapse on him. Right now I would start a lineup of Jose, Mike, one of Bubba/Tristan, Usher, Moses. I like the idea of playing Usher solid min at the 4. He is well built and athletic and skilled enough to force a 4 to move out to guard him, which would create more space in the paint area for Moses and for penetration. Now that lineup would obviously be weaker defensively than this year, but hopefully you make it up with better offense. I would not expect any grad transfer we got at the 5 to play as much as Banks did. That is unrealistic. A more realistic idea is if you can get a top tier grad transfer big who is a good rim protector, they might play 20 min or a little more. There is alot of guards and forwards in transfer portal right now, not very many centers. The only center i've seen in the portal that i would have much interest in right now is the one for Loyola Marymount. 7'2, 250 Swedish native. Was a 2 yr starter until taking this year off after his mother passed away. [/QUOTE]
