If we had a facilitator or a guy that could create his own shot you can absolutely play them together.

KY is investing a lot into player development, maybe that's the plan with Mag?

tacallaway

Have to play Mag with Fouss. You want a very athletic big coming off the bench

SUAVO

Defense more than makes up for it.

Plantagenet

Jun 2, 10:43pm

With two facilitators the level of Hall & Egor out there — I think it works. Mag is NOT a toothless offensive player.

You can leave a 30% shooter wide open.

kimdaddy35

Jun 2, 10:01pm

Not when he hits from set spots at a significantly higher rate.

SinkingQuffa

Jun 2, 10:04pm

You mean like Rutgers did last year? I'm glad it is so easy.

kimdaddy35

Jun 2, 10:08pm

He's not a high-volume shooter. Those guys' #s sometimes get skewed cuz a high % are late in the clock & off script.

SinkingQuffa

Jun 2, 10:15pm

Funny thing is, Gideon is a better shooter than Mag

Jun 2, 10:17pm

Gideon was a fine shooter when he didn't fancy himself as a volume shooter. Mag's feel for the game seems

SinkingQuffa

Jun 2, 10:22pm

I’m not talking about the overall player I’m just comparing their shooting

Jun 2, 11:02pm

I didn't think I denied Gideon is a better shooter. Gideon was generally a good shooter when he took good shots.

SinkingQuffa

It’s not so black and white

Jun 2, 10:16pm

That’s what Jaxon Robinson was in b12 play

BYU '80

Jun 2, 10:23pm

Granted, the majority of those were very difficult shots. His 30ish% amounted to a lot of pressure on a D.

SinkingQuffa

Jun 2, 10:26pm

Majority? That’s overstating it by quite a bit. Some of them yes

BYU '80

Jun 2, 10:31pm

Not possible. Jax was VERY rarely wide open when he was anywhere close to the line.

SinkingQuffa

Jun 2, 10:32pm

I watched the games. He was often wide open.

BYU '80

Jun 2, 10:42pm

My main issue w Jax (which doesn't seem to be an issue at all w Demin) is that he didn't attack the rim nearly enough.

SinkingQuffa

Jun 2, 10:54pm

So is Demin the focal point of the offense? or will it be something like last

Rhubarb

Loved the multiple scoring threats. Made it much harder to prep for us.

Soupie

I doubt a 19 year old FR will be BYU’s top scorer.

He will be. He’s a top 10 pick next year. Watch his games.

Fouss? Top scorer? No way. If that happens we’re in trouble.

It's why Berke would be a great add. Richie & Mag have their offensive holes, but they can be good scorers if used right

Baker, Crawford, Knell, and Koz is a lot of Offense to mix in

I kinda assume this will be a developmental year for Koz (to work on D), but he could surprise & grab a role at the 4.
