If you think I'm worried about spelling everything right in these posts your missing the point anyway. So go find someone else to annoy. Anyway, there have been alot of years when we didn't match up well with them but this ain't one of em. I think they have more to worry about with us than we do them. They do have great guards but the one that hurt state , Maxey. He went on a one man mission every time he touched the ball so he makes noone better.
Plus we are solid at guard, and long, and great shooting team, and experienced, and great free throw shooting team, rebounds, athletic, deep, see where I'm going with this. Not worried
Sorry, but that’s where you show you’re just not watching our team.
We do not have a truly great primary ball handler. We do have size and capable scorers all over the floor, but Darius Perry and Fresh Kimble are 2 guards trying to play the 1. Darius has the athletic ability, but still is all potential right now. And those thinking David Johnson can step right in and go, that still remains to be seen because he really was more of a combo than a pure point.
And basing our matchups on one game you watched Kentucky? I mean Maxey has a great game sure, but Hagans is one of the top 5 defensive guards in the nation and has a year of experience. The other 5 star guard Quickley is strong as well. Any of those 3 would be our starter at the 1.
He scored 26 points and had a great game, scoring a lot of points doesn’t mean your selfish. I mean just because Nwora scores and shoots a lot doesn’t mean he’s 1 man that only is on a mission to score. They both are just scorers, that’s their roles.
Now down low is where we can have an advantage. Now we won’t have as large an advantage as we will against other team, but we are a bit stronger than them and more skilled in the inside. Nick Richards is a great defender, but in the past he’s foul prone so it remains to be seen.
Malik needs to get healthy, but even without we are pretty strong down there. Sutton being able to play stretch 4 is my favorite part of the Cards this year, the key to a log run in March. Enoch’s strength can just power guys out of the paint. Depth wise, we can’t get in foul trouble, Igiehon isn’t ready at this point in time.
