Avg 6 minutes each. Top guys might get 10. Just think of the lineup combinations! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t at all but that’s why I said I’m not convinced he can play there. I think his skill set is much better as a 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his skill set is much better as a 4 I guess I don’t follow that logic. He earned minutes late in the season as a three but you think he is better suited at the 4, where he got no minutes? I mean to each their own but I think he’s a 3/wing/perimeter forward/whatever you want to call it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand he didn’t get minutes there but his specific skill set seems to be better at the 4 than the 3. If he really is a good 3 point shooter and ready to come in and let it fly and shoot 33-37% then I’m totally fine with him playing the 3.

What’s the specific skill set he has that makes him more of a 4? On defense it’s pretty clear the coaches though of him as more of a 3, but maybe he has some sweet post moves on offense he hasn’t busted out?

Popular Post IUfaninIllinois Posted April 11, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 11, 2023 (edited) I don’t think I can state enough how important Coach Rosemond currently is to IU. Not only do the players absolutely love him but he is a heck of a recruiter with tons of freaking contacts. We need to back the brinks truck up for him for years to come.

He’s really good at boxing out and getting in there and getting some bodies on guys. He’s super long and think he can hang down low on a defensive guy better than he can stop penetration against a 3. I think he would be better running baseline and making cuts in a 4 out 1 in system and is a very good finisher. I think woody wants a 3 who is shooting tons of 3s IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I ever saw Race run the baseline at IU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a normal 4 out offense you have a player doing just that and it’s typically the 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He apparently thought giving race and tjd more time on the court was better for winning than forcing his 4 out, 1 in offense on the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s really just four guys that are guards and wings around a big. Like I don’t consider Jayson Tatum a 4 just because the Celts play 4 out a lot of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
