Just to pass some offseason time, I'm curious on people's thoughts.
I know we all think next year's team offers more potential than this year's team. With that said, although Ballo is likely the best C in the B1G next year (IMO), I don't believe he's at the level of Ware. I mean Ware averaged more pts, and blocks while getting the same rebs...and that was while he had a PF named Reneau. Not to mention he could shoot 3's when left open. The real upgrade on the roster is our guard play, combined with Mbakgo having his sophomore leap.
So, do we think the guard play alone overcomes the idea that we will have 2 bigs down low fighting over paint space vs. both of our bigs being a threat to go out wide? Or maybe we plan to push Reneau out to shoot more often? Again, it's all nonsense talk for the sake of conversation on a boring spring Friday but was curious where the collective was at with this today?
