[QUOTE="YlJacket, post: 702579, member: 2784"] The con is playing a center who doesn't make the travel team at his high school in the ACC before he is ready. And FWIW we played Bubba with Jose and DeVoe a ton this year so not sure it is out of position going forward. On the other side IMHO this really isn't about Moses it is about Jose and DeVoe. Especially Jose. The strength of our offense is Jose's penetration - and DeVoe's to a lesser extent. I don't know why we want to play a double post offense with 2 guys in or around the paint right where Jose is going to try to penetrate and do something with the ball - besides turn it over. We need to be thinking about ways to open the floor and the best idea out there is to space the floor and give Jose room to operate freely. We are not doing that with a base offense of Moses at the 4 - it will be the same as last year only not as good. One final thought - in today's game playing Moses at the 5 and Usher at the 4 is not really "out of position". I am as old school as anyone on this board and played/ coached double post offenses for years but the modern game is a spacing game with guys like Moses at the 5 and "undersized" but athletic guys like Usher at the 4. In the ACC there are a lot more teams with a smaller stretch 4 type of player than there are UNC's still playing a classic double post. IMHO we desperately need another 3 point threat on the court next year and that is going to be at the 3. If Usher ramps his 3 point shooting up and Saba comes in as the second coming of Shaq then by all means put Moses at the 4 and see what happens. I just don't expect both of those 2 things to happen.
