Nic Moore will allow SMU to break the press easier this year

Postby SMU 86 » Thu Oct 10, 2013 11:18 pm

Nic Moore being a true point guard will help SMU break the press easier and also allow us to be an more up tempo offense.

I heard the same thing. I believe he might drop 25 or 30 in some games this year.

I think that a years experience with LB will allow more time to work on things like breaking the press as well as fresh legs at the end of the game. I expect some easy buckets when the other team presses.

And yes, Nic Moore will help that also.

A good point guard can break a press by himself a lot of times without getting trapped.

I know people saw Nic on the sidelines last year and probably thought, wow, he is small. That is true but I'm telling you, the guy can ball at a high level. He is a helluva PG and will make this team MUCH better immediately..

want to see Moore deliver a 3:1 assist to turnover ratio. Is that asking too much?

Nic Moore will drive to the basket and nail some 3 pointers as well.
