@MikeMillerHT: Crean: "If teams want to double us next year and we have the capability on the perimeter that we think we'll have, good luck to them"

Might mean nothing, but if Crean thinks we are going to be strong on the perimeter next season, one would think that means Yogi and James are staying?

Whatever it means, I like the swagger of Crean's statement.

I don't get why swagger is a good thing

[WayneFleekHoosier 47,975]

Oh, the offseason. 

 

Upset about Max leaving.  Worried about Troy leaving.  Stoked about landing TB.  Worried about TB getting poached by Calipari.  Worried about Yogi leaving.  Now worried about JBJ making a bad decision. 

 

Off seasons are ridiculous.  What a roller coaster ride.  If I thought Crean was better at having option B's then I wouldn't worry so much.   But I do. 

 

Next year could be a special year with the talent we have stockpiled.  Reports are that DD is doing well too.  Options a plenty.

You left out the 1347 entry Thon Maker watch thread.

I am wanting Junior back, as much as any player. I believe his upside is huge. I want him to show some determination on defense, but he is not thr only one.

Personally I would prefer quality basketball and quality coaching with no swagger

This, right here. I'm with you on that one. :)

There is a difference between having Swagger and being Cocky.

 

Swagger = showing determination in your skill and backing it up with performance. (i.e. Vic)

 

Cocky = making others perceive that you have skill and using propaganda instead of performance (i.e. Andrew Harrison or any UK player)

 

In this instance I take Swagger any day

What two teams would be stupid enough to take him in the first round?

 

Sixers or celtics.

No, swagger does not mean that. Having swagger literally means to be arrogant or cocky. It means that you are posturing. I don't get how that is a good or admirable thing. I don't understand why it should be celebrated.

Best way for James to build his NBA resume is to return to Bloomington and work with renewed determination.

It's one of those words that need to go away.

Guess you were never a Will Sheehey fan then. 

Yeah lets just have a team that gives up when faced with a challenge
