Can get to the line and shoot decent from deep at 35%.

The backcourt could be interesting with the rotations. But I think Moore, Dotson and Grimes all play a lot.

He also had that alumni game where he went off this summer.

I'm not sleeping on Moore...but I wonder how consistent he'll be, I also think Dotson has a significantly higher ceiling.

Also, interesting that Self keeps talking about how he'll play a lot as the 2-guard.

It's not fair to do this, but Moore seems a lot more Graham-esque and Dotson may be more in the Mason mold.

Yeah, I'm not saying you are. But nothing much is said about him nationally.

But that is a good analogy. Dotson will be a guy who may not be the best shooter, but can handle the ball and get in the paint and be able to finish close to the rim. Moore might more of a guy who will hit some outside shots and get to the paint if it's open.

These are the years that I love the unknowns heading into the season. It'll be exciting to see how our guard rotations break down...and it'll be exciting to see how our bigs operate offensively and defensively. Some years it's just a "hold your breath until the final 4" for me when we're a veteran team with few unknown new pieces....this year I'm excited for the growth we will see. Even though we are highly ranked I don't feel there is final 4 or bust pressure on this team with so many new pieces and transfers. I think we can do it, but I won't be heartbroken if we're still a year away.

I knew there'd be some dipshit who couldn't understand.

Moore is a streaky scorer, dotson is a fast twitch tough nosed ball handler who can get to the rim.

The last time we played 2 PGs was graham and mason....graham played off the ball more, mason was primary.

I was comparing their styles of play as it relates to their roles. Not comparing them as players, careers, or predictions of productivity.

devonte was a more true point guard tho. even when playing with frank
frank was more athletically explosive and a scorer.

moore is supposed to be more of a shooter/scorer.
dotson is supposed to be very athletic but more of a point guard

so both are unique players and aren't that similar to either frank or devonte. but i get what you were trying to compare the combination of moore/dotson to our last 2 point guard attack.

and you said "its not fair to do this" so this dipshit will give you a pass. but i respectfully don't like that comparison lol not at all
