    Not sure, but I doubt it. Donovan said he could be out up to two weeks recently. I'll ask when we meet him later.

    I got to thinking after wisky game that mike ro and KB backcourt ain't a bad look lol and plus opens a scholly in 2013 as bad as that sounds.

    Hopefully SW balls out and shows NBA PG skills to shut up people like me

  • S.W. is in his third year and should really be a big time contributor, you don't like seeing three year guys leave. Unlike Larson Scottie has made meaningful contributions and played quality minutes. Glad it worked out and I am excited he is back on the roster.

    Why would wilbekin not start when it settles....id say it be weird to have rosario over wilbekin. Once the whole team is back we have a lot of diferent good line ups to choose from though. Boynton just isn't as good at point as wilbekin who is a true point.

  • On SW what does "true point" mean ? Implies a PG who can dribble like hell, break presses , doesn't turn it over , can get to rim and can dish/ find open teammates /facilitate offense and scoring secondary ?

    Only part of that definition SW has shown capable of is scoring is secondary ....not clear to me he is dynamic in open court with ball and can attack the rim , distribute at a high level based on what seen last 2 yrs

    Yes he is a tenacious defender and can hit the open spot 3 ball but no evidence based on on court play that he can be a differnce maker Pg IMO

    Our team just destroyed a team a potential tournament team. Not sure why we would change it.

    I like Scottie, but Billy's doesn't use "true points." All of his PGs have been scoring PGs. Scottie really hasn't shown that yet.

    He doesn't drive well but he has shown a good ability to set up the offense and he is a great defender. Boynton is a scorer....that should be his role. Walker drove better than wilbekin but the offense ran as smoothly with Scott on the court as it did walker. And he does shoot well but scoring isn't really a huge need at pg. We have murphy, boynton, will, rosario, and young if they give him the ball to put the points up. We need a defender/passer at guard.
