Dayton's top 6 guys averaged from 28.5 to 33.5 minutes per game. Brea averaged 29.1 MPG which was 4th on the team. So he played starter minutes despite coming off the bench much like Reed.
We need a DUDE..

- Start date
Maybe we need a team full of really good team players. We've had OAD DUDES and have won one friggin' NCAA game since 2019.
Far from a lock, but I have a feeling Chandler is being underestimated. Lot of focus on two years away from the game, but I’m more intrigued by 2 years to get physically stronger.
Wouldn’t be surprised if he is that dude by February.

You need 3 "Dudes" or "Go-To Guys" or whatever you want to call them. Someone who when you need a basket can go get you one.
Maybe Carr is that, IDK. I think Osobor would be one, if we get him. Maybe Oweh can become one. But I don't think we have one yet (unless Carr), even though I do like the additions so far.

Agreed. Pope didn't start Jaxson Robinson last year either.
I wanna know what’s up with him. Gone radio silent,
Arkansas people are saying he’s either staying in the draft or going to Arkansas
Lol just replied the gist of this because it popped into my head.... Then went back to finish the reading thread and You're beat me too it...
I like your style.
I sometimes worry about how my mind works........
Then I post it anyway....lol.
Osobar kinda seems like a West Coast kid.
I hope we get him but I. could see him at Tx Tech too.
Maybe all the chatter today is just chatter.
We've done pretty well so far.

Of course they do. They still think they’re getting Malik Monk.
I actually agree.
We need a couple of guys who can just go win us a game.
We had that last year but abysmal coaching got in the way.
Jeremy Roach would have been awesome.
Brea is awesome but not that type of guy. Brea is a guy you want to be your 3rd best player, maybe even 4th best player, on a title team.
We need to hit on some of these big fish (Osobor, Johnell Davis which is a longshot, Kadary Richmond, etc)
I think the staff has some tricks up their sleeve that they aren't advertising just yet, I have faith.
But yeah, we do need a few dudes to round this thing out.

NO. Klay Thompson is a solid defender, multi level scorer. He is not just a behind the arc shooter. Klay Thompson his SR. year averaged 21.6 PPG / 5.2 rebounds / 3.7 Assist / 1.6 steals / 1 block per game. Also, averaged shooting 5.5 free throws per game. Not much less his JR. year Meaning he was aggressive with the basketball.
Brea on the other hand, averaged 11 per game, 1 assist, 3.8 rebounds per game. Averaged attempting 1.4 2FG and .5 free throws per game. He is not an aggressive player (less than a free throw attempted per game) does not get fouled and shot minimum 2FG per game. he is a 3 point specialist and that is all he will give you. Now, he does that very well (3 made per game), but do not expect huge numbers any where else.
Radio silence from guys associated with UK hasn't necessarily turned out poorly for us.
Just sayin.... 👀
Yeah that is true, I just meant overall no noise from anyone he’s looking at. Usually some school says something.
OAD does not mean is a "Dude" or go-to player. NBA strongly considers future projections.
Always desirable.
I think Great qualities or if not he would have to be seen as close then if we can put several near dudes out there like Brea, Robinson, and Carr with him we ought to be formidable. Add Oweh and Chandler with real chances to grow into such over the season and things start looking pretty nice.

No I think we're all with you on this. Really please with everything but Championship teams do need that dog.
Can? Yes.
Can be assumed so after a two year layoff? No.
Give him a little room to get his legs back under him and grow back into his game.
I'm starting to think that Darryn Peterson is the surprise. He may reclass and commit after peach jam this summer.
i’m going “meh” with needing a closer or a dude. these guys develop out of teams most of the time and you don’t know who it can be. we’ve had teams with 2-3 of this type and it didn’t get us what we wanted. look at dillingham last year. he closed several games, and i think we lost most of them.
Every championship team has a “dude” lol every single one. So yes we do need one. Maybe 2 tbh.
Perhaps we already have a dude already on the team. We don't know. Players can break out and become more than what they are expected. Happens all the time LOL.
Correct. Pope, much like Cal, didn’t start three of his best players in Robinson Saunders and Traore.
Robinson moved to the starting lineup during the middle of the season and did really poorly.
He did start most of the games the year before though.
