If Haws wants to play defense on the PG he has to improve his lateral

quickness. One of the reasons our defense matched up good with Gonzaga is because Haws matched up on Matthews and he could not be exploited off the dribble.

Coach Cleveland says byu needs to bring in a stretch 4.

I still think Dastrup can be that guy.

fredetteaboutit13

3/17/17 11:09am

That was supposed to be Dastrup.

No comment.

Ok I'll comment.

thebruce

That was an agonizing 3 minutes for you, wasn't it.

AndyDwyer

3/17/17 11:22am

He also said: "maybe that is Dastrup"

BYUheaven

3/17/17 11:12am

Childs needs to practice free throws

LDTemplar

3/17/17 5:26pm

Something about his release is screwy

HootnHoller

3/18/17 8:02pm

I disagree

CaliWG

3/17/17 11:13am

I absolutely agree we need a wing off the bench...

thebruce

3/17/17 11:16am

We have solid PGs in Bryant and Haws

Remigius

3/17/17 11:28am

Look at BYU's "bad" losses. Every one of them was to a team with a quick PG.

CaliWG

3/17/17 11:31am

If Haws wants to play defense on the PG he has to improve his lateral

BYUheaven

3/17/17 11:37am

I'm not disputing we struggle against fast PG's.

thebruce

3/17/17 11:53am

The way to beat SMC is to pressure their ball handlers

CaliWG

3/17/17 12:11pm

I certainly agree that smc is beatable if you can pressure their guards

thebruce

3/17/17 12:18pm

and not let Landale set up where ever he wants in the low block...

icecougar

3/17/17 3:17pm

I think Haws can and will improve on D.

RoaroftheCougartails

3/17/17 2:09pm

and a major mindset change on defense from our PGs...

icecougar

3/17/17 3:08pm

Haws can become that point guard. He was a Fr, and will be better adjusted

Shteve

3/17/17 11:41am

No identity is the biggest problem, every guard and big man defends the PnR

BYUheaven

3/17/17 11:51am

BYU hasn't had a true defensive stopper at PG since Broadus

CaliWG

3/17/17 11:56am

Charles Abuou... Scheme will make up for alot of what we dont have athletically.

Shteve

3/17/17 12:04pm

Also why in that same year the speed of Malcolm Lee and Jones caused fits

BYUheaven

3/17/17 12:04pm

Hmmm, he is the last Hawaii player on BYU team. Is Villa that guy for BYU? He is

Seljaas could fill the 3/D role this upcoming season

MusicNtheSpokaneCoug

3/17/17 12:01pm

Nate Austin could have been that, but was not developed.

Shteve

3/17/17 11:14am

Isaac Nielson was that and got run off

CaliWG

3/17/17 11:15am

Very true. Makes you wonder why this isnt valued.

Shteve

3/17/17 11:19am

Watching all the WCC teams drive by our guards with no one in the key makes you

BYUheaven

3/17/17 11:22am

Yep, Austin set the screens but never was asked to do anything beyond that. A

BYUheaven

3/17/17 11:19am

I think they need a Stretch Armstrong.

PhilPete

3/17/17 11:18am

I agree because having Childs and Mika on the floor at the same time is horrible for spacing

Remigius

3/17/17 11:21am

It is Dastrup, guards are needed

chodilicus

3/17/17 11:23am

Yep, if the coaches can't develop Dastrup, Andrus, or Childs into a stretch 4

BYUheaven

3/17/17 11:29am

Yep, both Emery and Haws are 2s in how they play. They are both shoot first guys.

Turnpike Lane

To your point, I think Noah's importance to that 2011 is undervalued.

Shteve

3/17/17 11:25am

more good basketball players always helps. So yes

Mayor of Cougartown

3/17/17 11:26am

Put a headband and some wraparound goggles on Jakob Hartsock and you've got

Run-DMT

3/17/17 11:39am

Yeah I would have liked to see Hartsock stay.

jensen46

3/17/17 12:31pm

Hartsock just gave up Basketball

chodilicus

3/17/17 12:44pm

I totally agree with you on Nate. He was way under-utilized on offense and probably could have

lightmann

3/17/17 12:46pm

So what is considered a stretch 4 these days? Are we talking sheer

DJROSS

3/17/17 12:29pm

A 4 who can shoot the 3

CMuehle

3/17/17 12:56pm

I'd prefer long slashing 3's that can get to the rim and play D.

Thrill

3/17/17 12:30pm

It's not one or the other.

thebruce

3/17/17 12:36pm

The kid from Timpview on a mish...potential stretch 4?

BYUfan92

3/17/17 12:55pm

Yes, but I'm mostly referring to next season.

thebruce

3/17/17 1:03pm

BYU needs so much that it is frightening.

Archaea

3/17/17 12:58pm

Too short to be a stretch 4?

CMuehle

3/17/17 1:08pm

I think of NBA stretch 4s being 6'10 to 7'

Archaea

3/17/17 1:26pm

I think of NBA stretch 4s being 6'10 to 7'

Archaea

3/17/17 1:28pm

Why would a stretch 4 be any taller or

CMuehle

3/17/17 1:30pm

He can be a stretch 4 to some extent. Size isn't an issue at all.

thebruce

3/17/17 1:11pm

He needs to develop a 3 point shot to have any chance at the NBA, but that isn't

cougaman

3/17/17 1:50pm

This^^^*

Cnation

3/17/17 7:34pm

the concept of a stretch four isn't based on a specific height...

icecougar

3/17/17 7:47pm

Gee...too bad he ran off Isaac Neilson

icecougar

3/17/17 1:56pm

Look at the stats, Neilson not a game changer

chodilicus

3/17/17 3:11pm

when building a team, having all players as game changers doesn't always...

icecougar

3/17/17 7:35pm

Someone like Dalton Nixon or Jakob Hartsock?

Coogar2

3/17/17 3:59pm

No, I want a guy that can start who is a jc or grad transfer

thebruce

3/17/17 4:57pm

that's asking a lot

icecougar

3/17/17 7:37pm

gotta fight hard to find one. We have 5 top 100 guys on our

for this position I wish we did better recruiting international players...
