Looking to next season

[X-Hoosier 529]

Green and Cujo are why I am ok with Tremont Waters.  Having Taller guards that we can use when the need comes.  This was a luxury we didn't have Yogis freshmen year against Syracuse. 

Green is only 6-2. He isn't considered a tall guard. And Jones is considered a shorter SG nowadays.

If you don't understand how having guards of 6-4 and 6-2 is different than having 2 guards of 6-0 then maybe you should just give up on basketball.

We already have 2 that are 6-3 and it hasn't really helped that much. You start taking 6-6 or 6-7 then we're getting somewhere.

Yep just give up on basketball.

Waters is 5-11. He's like Yogi. Having a 6-2 Green and 6-4 Jones doesn't change from where we already have been. Which was Yogi at 5-11 and then RJ and JBJ at 6-3. We've already seen it.

He said yogi's freshman year, where we had yogi and hulls as our starters. We've been just fine when Yogi had JBJ and RJ with him. He's referencing the same thing if we get Waters because we won't have to worry about another 6 foot guard being beside him. Reading comprehension is your friend

We had Vic and Remy too. And we haven't been fine with JBJ and RJ. We had one year of absolutely awful defense. The beginning of last year abs some decent play after that.

Yeah because Vic and Remy were clearly capable of playing point. Like I said give up Basketball.

I love the hostility.

Yeah I was pretty annoyed seeing such blatant and ignorant opinions based on race. 99.9% of individuals on here are mature enough to not post that kind of thing.

To be fair Remy did play some point and was in my opinion not a bad option but that has nothing to do with this argument.

I to think Remy could have one day played point for us. But he wasn't ready for it. Especially not against a team like Syracuse

Oh by no means am I saying he would've helped us with Syracuse but I was never worried with having him as the PG.

How many 6-6 or 6-7 players are playing guard in college basketball. Cool Durant is a 7' guard, in the NBA... Having a small guard rarely hurts in college.

Well KD is 6-11 and is a SF-PF. I didn't say it hurt. I'm saying it doesn't change from what we already have.

He's like -- he's not like Magic Johnson at all -- but he's like
Magic in that you can play him probably any of four positions, if
not five. Playing the 2, he's not going to get beat up, box to box,
the whole game."

2 guard makeup and mentality

[gfunk69 118]

So, Indiana's frontcourt:
Bryant - 6-10/255
Davis 6-10/240
Morgan 6-8/230
Anunoby 6-8/235
Hartman 6-7/220
McSwain 6-6/215

Not bad. #iubb

As I said in the McSwain thread, I have a class with him and he is HUGE. Didn't stand next to him but when he walked in the class I thought it was him but wasn't sure because I didn't realize he was so big. If he's on a fast break I wouldn't take a charge from him. If he is only 215-220 his body fat% has to be less than 3

And he's still a SF-PF.

So he's a PG? I mean I guess so. He handles the ball a lot. If Russ wasn't on the team he'd probably be the point.

any word on whether he can ball? No doubt he is an athlete/physically mature, I think most are concerned he is a project vs someone that can help immediately

This isn't the NBA. Villanova won the championship with a 3 guard lineup that were 6'2.5", 6'3", and 6'5".
Those heights are taken from Villanova's official website. And we know X's stance of teams' official sites: They lie on height.
So, according to X, the starting 3 guards for the NATIONAL CHAMPIONS were 6'1.5", 6'2", and 6'4".
But sure, 6'7" guards should soon be a mainstay in college basketball dominance.
