Same would be true if Semi stayed for this year. Can't even imagine how good we could be if Semi actually got to play the 3, akoy at the 5 Ethan at the 4 Foster at the 2 and Shake at the 1 would have been sick. plus Whitt Ben and the Freshman for depth/line up/style changes.

No one had seen semi in two and a half years before last year so comparing mock drafts is not really fair.

Yeah.. Foster will be the mystery if he goes pro or not.

I personally don’t think he is as close as some think or that he will, unless he averages around 17-7 and shoots lights out from 3 like Sterling and Semi did. Unlike Semi, Jarrey won’t play 4 in the NBA for more than a couple mins tops. He can manage in college, but not in the pros.

He will be asked to play the 3 so he is going to have to show besides being an NBA caliber athlete (which gets him on the radar) that he can be a consistent knock down shooter from 3 and create some off the bounce. If Jarrey shoots 42% from 3 this year on an increased volume then yeah he could be a fringe 1st round guy, but if not I expect he is a late 2nd rounder at best. Love Jarrey’s game and development, but his skill set is still developing. He still relies heavily on scoring on lobs and attacking weaker athletes in the college game. He, like Shake did in coming back this season, has a lot to gain, because he could be the man in 2018-19.

55% Free Throw Shooters aren't in high demand in the NBA either-its really perplexing that he can't raise that

if Ben can't make the nba after 4 years, I don't think Jarrey is anywhere near ready after this year.

I think Jarrey will need his final collegiate year for the best result.

And yeah, we’d be the [deleted] right now with Semi.
But I’d take next year’s crew with Shake over this year’s with Semi.
The four frosh would have a year under their belts. IMIKE joins the party. Agau and McMurray return having a season already played with Shake, Jarrey and Whitt.

Shake, Jarrey, Whitt, McMurray, Landrum, Douglas, Hunt,
IMIKE, Agau, Chargois, Ray, Jackson

Damn.

Besides..... Semi is gone. Shake isn’t!

A) Ben is doing well in the gleague so don’t be surprised if he gets some NBA minutes this year or next. b) Ben’s problem is he is small and skinny for an NBA 4 and even though he is athletic enough he doesn’t have the handles or the shooting to be a 3 in the NBA. All of that said BM will probably play professionally for a long time if he wants to go to Europe.

Livingston is quicker and more athletic IMO.

You'll get no argument from me on those points.

Also, don't forget about Young. He's 6'9" so with some S&C he may be able to give a little front court depth. Then you have Maxey on deck. I think that's a sweet 16 team and then you bring in Maxey. Keep the momentum going.

"Ojai slits wrist"? Really?
