Dickinson would start for us from day one. He would be a great get.

Are you suggesting that Juwan isn't brilliant?

I don't blame Michigan for taking a chance on him but obviously he had no experience as a big time college coach and it shows.

Just that I don't get how that talented of a team sucked. And wondering if Dickinson's defense was a part of it

Fine. I'll say it: Juwan was/is a disaster.

It was a stupid idea and it's working out stupidly.

It’s almost like - and bear with me here - being great at basketball (and/or being great at talking about basketball) doesn’t make you a great coach.

I haven’t thought about it a lot in the basketball context, but I think there’s a reason great baseball players make awful managers: they don’t understand how the game works for people less talented than they were.

Yeah, that's addressed quite a bit in Moneyball

Based on Self's comments, sounds like there's a decent chance of getting McCullar back

Getting Mc back may be both a blessing and a curse.

We could def use the experience and d

But when we already stand to play a core of Dajuan/KJ/Udeh a bunch, that also means big minutes for yet another non-shooter

Hey, Jalen Wilson raised his 3P% from 26.3% to 33.7% in one year, which was useable this season.
If Kevin could make a similar jump, we're lookin' at 37%, which would be good.

Absolutely. He has a lot more going on, mechanically, though. So many moving parts.

Took me, like, 15 seconds before I realized that's not Sean Sutton.

Also, clearly, it's a rug.

That might be the only photo of Self I’ve ever seen that’s NOT a rug.

Sweet party coves tho!

But I should add, yea I’d take Mc back, cuz high potential for a super senior leap

Tho Self should give him a talk about being a cryer.

Speaking of, I’d take that Baylor guard from the portal too

That's the point. He had less hair then than now.

He's just running so fast it's pulling his hairline back.
