WELL 2012-2013 Was pretty stacked but the depth wasn't like this. That team was my favorite of all time. I'm still ****es they choked the way they did. But this team looks awesome on paper.

Stacked, but not deep. It was actually pretty slim on depth, especially when Reggie got hurt, and Bishop Daniels quit.

I often think about that team. You'd think with the way they shot that night against Marquette they would have lost by 25. If they could have hit a few 3's in a row to jumpstart a run I think they would have came back.

The 2016 team was **** good too but ran into the eventual champs in the sweet 16.
 
Whose minutes will Malik, if he returns, most likely be taking.
 
Malik averaged almost 30 minutes per game last season. Doubt he'll see much fewer that that if he returns. That's coming out of some players' expected playing time. Managing that is why Jai makes the big bucks.
 
They didn’t choke, half the team got sick and Marquette had the night of their lives. It happens, hence why the NCAA Tournament is the worst way to determine a champion, but is the best entertainment product. It’s a single elimination tournament with a ton of teams.
YEAH well at the time. We didn't know the entire team was sick... I found that out much later. At the time I was super bummed and thought they choked lol

It’s really not much to go off of; & yet…….the Bahamas practice-footage-glimpses had Robert Miller III wetting a 3 and Caleb ‘just turned 18 last week’ Gaskins passing from the perimeter to Cyril for the finish.

If i had to guess, Miller/Reneau/Goode will switch between being a 3 and 4, yet Miller then Reneau will have the most time on the wings at the free throw line extended while Goode is more of a corner 3 or short corner man; all 3 of them will be roll guys and get touches on the block ofc.

I think Rhyzov is going to play and have that backup 2 spot secured; he turns 22 in ten days and is like a cocaine bear out on the hardwood. Being a fish outta water makes it hard to tell how much will translate but he looks extremely comfortable switching onto guards off the PnR. I don’t envision many if any lineups without one of Cyril or Rhyzov on the court.



I have a tuff time seeing Birden getting burn this year; except for in select blowouts.
 
With Malik, the depth this team has is incredible. Definitely built to make a run.
 
belt to *** in the players era, when they smack michigan by 20 and then zags by 25 that title game with tennessee gunna go crazy
