Zlinedavid Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 1 minute ago, OGIUAndy said: Me too. He took 51 shots, 42 were threes, made 15 so 35.7%. Works for me with a much higher volume. I don't care what position the threes come from, just take and make more. Actually, it's his position that makes him valuable. Contrary to what some want to believe, we can't just roll Reneau and 4 guards out on the floor. Power has the size to play as a stretch-4 alongside either Reneau or Ballo, or if MM runs into foul trouble or if we just need the size on the floor, he could play alongside both Reneau and Ballo as a wing. Essegian is just another decent shooting SG. Power gives us both shooting and flexibility. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I've said this at least a few times, and if anyone is wondering WTF I'm talking about, the "Calhoun's health is the word" goes all the way back to HSN 1.0, when it was part of the Scout.com network. During the recruitment of former 5* Jelan Kendrick (which I believe was 2007-2008ish), at one point it was reported it was a tossup between IU and UConn. An "insider" posted that Kendrick to IU was a "Done deal, Calhoun's health is the word". At the time, Jim Calhoun was fighting cancer. Well, as it turns out, Kendrick was a bust who played 3 different places, none of which were IU or UConn. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe_Hoopsier Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 1 hour ago, Seeking6 said: Here's my two cents. With Tucker, Rice, and Ballo we've already crushed the offseason. If/when Carlyle says yes that's even better. No disrespect to the Hickman or Essegian types but they won't move the needle like the above. If Essegian comes great. If not....find another. Quick, someone make a 2024 portal banner!!! (this is a joke and only a joke, had I been serious I’d be a PUke fan). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel like him, Reneau, and Ballo at the same time wouldn’t be a lineup that would work very well, especially defensively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's listed as a PF, but if you look at him play, he's very much a euro/stretch-4, not a traditional 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
