NO!

You may see maymon get a few minutes during the game at the 3, but I mean like 5. He will not start at the 3.

He's quick but not that quick. He will once again be at the 4/5 next year.

And no way yemi is playing over Kenny IMO next year.

McBee needs to be the first person off of the bench. I like the idea of using him as an offensive spark. His defense is below average and he can only shoot 3s. I like:

Stokes
Maymon
Richardson
Mcrae
Golden


The HELL with jacking up 3s. We need to slash and feed the ball in the middle. I like Those 5 together the best, especially defensively.

My hope is Richardsons offense transforms enough for him to start, because defensively he is better than mcbee, it's just he brough little offensively.

We are much better if he can start and provide an offensive threat at the 2

For fun let's say we get Fabyon...

PG: Fabyon 32/ Trae 8
SG: Trae 24/ Richardson 16
SF: Jordan 25/ Edwards 15
PF: Stokes 30/ Maymon 10
C: Maymon 20/ Hall 15/ Yemi 5

[vol017]

Richardson needs to be the Bradshaw of the bunch. Doing the small stuff. They don't need 20 points every night out of him, just someone that can defend someone's top scorer and give about 6-8 pts a game. Not that Bradshaw was an amazing defender, but you know what i mean.

Golden, McBee, Stokes, Maymon, and then McRae/Richardson. McBee brings a certain toughness this team needs. Also, McBee was a good off ball defender. McBee earned his starting spot last year and I don't see Martin taking it away from him during his senior year. Much like Martin stuck with Tatum, I think he sticks with McBee. It will be a battle between McRae learning to focus and Richardson improving his offense for the SF spot.

Trae is going to be the starter at PG. CCM has said this multiple times.

You wanna bet on that?

If we land Fabyon he's not riding the pine, not a chance. If we don't then yes you're correct, but you can bet your house on it if we land Fabyon trae will be playing the 2 te majority of the time.

Anyone want to bet that the dynamic of the rotation is, at best, unsettled for next year? CCM will put his best (defensive) forward, and UT will continue to be offensively limited. Get ready for another year of tough-nosed, hard fought wins. This team will progress, but is still lacking in overall talent.

I think that's pretty well said, unless we can add Fabyon i see next years team being very similar.

That doesnt mean same result because i think well avoid those 4 or 5 bad losses next year, but well play the same way as you were saying IMO.

I doubt Fabyon starts at PG if we land him. It's going to take a better player to dethrone Golden.

Really? What's that based on?

Fabyon is Pierre Jackson 2.0

The easier way to look at it is not Fabyon vs Trae, but Fabyon vs Mcbee. If Fabyon is going to start it'll be pushing Trae to the 2, so is the team better with Fabyon at the 1 and trae at the 2, or trae at the 1 and mcbee at the 2???

If you've watched Fabyon at all then you should know the answer. As i said, he's Pierre Jackson 2.0, and IMO would immediately make us 5 wins or so better, and better in every aspect overall.

Coach Martin has indicated that none of the starters have secured their positions for next season. The notion that Trae will be the starting PG automatically is, according to what I have read, incorrect. The offseason will certainly be interesting.
