    today i have two points:

    1. i watch tyrell ward highlights. he is a cross between fudge and watford. more athletic than watford, but not as skilled. less athletic than fudge but more skilled. not as highly touted as watford but not as low as fudge.

    2. wade had run some advanced metrics or some shit on miller and eason. he said he knew eason would break out and he did exactly that. became a 1st round pick. he ran the same numbers on miller and said he would also break out. imagine if miller is a game changer to the level eason is.

    the flaw in this logic is that wade had tweaked those numbers for his system. miller is now in the mcmahon system and might not perform the same way wade projected.

    (i am predicting miller to LSU on friday, obviously)

    "I just have so much respect for people down here,” Miller told College Hoops Today. “I went through a few workouts with the new staff and really felt comfortable. I looked hard at the TCU situation, but I wanted to keep LSU across my chest."

    miller has returned.

    Great news. I think McMahon has built a respectable roster under very difficult circumstances. Eager to see how this team does moving forward.

    Be fair. It was Wade who got him here in the first place.

    so now i think we are looking at

    PG juice hill
    SG/CG adam miller
    F tyrell ward
    F mwani w
    C KJ williams

    these are antiquated terms, power forward, center etc, as most teams play 5 out now, meaning nobody at the basket on offense, open for drives and dishes etc. forwards are more like wings that often camp at the corner 3 positions. wilkinson is good at this shot.

    KJ williams takes 3 treys a game, he is trying to have a game like naz reid. i love a shooting big becuas it draws his opposing big out to cover him. then if he can pass like nikola jokic its easy baskets for all.

    wade loves an 8 man rotation. i dunno what mcmahon does. of he does want to play 8 guys every night, i would expect the additional 3 to be coleman, hannibal and justice W. and maybe jalen reed. hard to predict. i think we can anticipate that cornelios williams is abench player but anyone else might be a vital piece, including derek fountain and cam hayes, who is a pass-first pure PG.
