Seeking6 Posted April 14, 2022 Report Share Posted April 14, 2022 22 minutes ago, Inequality said: There will likely be a video similar to what Bacot released on Twitter. Speculation based on a couple things I know to be true unrelated to the draft projections. There is always a chance things could change but that’s ok. Trace has given his all to IU and he deserves his moments. His circle should be very proud of the fantastic person he is. Glad you brought this up. In our world of fandom I thought TJD's reaction to Bacot's release was something that he usually doesn't do. I know it's just a wow comment but it seemed more than that. Almost like I want to do that for my release when I say I'm coming back. Just speculating on my part but glad someone else is bringing this up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks strong and athletic, but odd form on his jump shot. Not quite the XJ shot put, but more of a two handed push shot. Seems to have a low release at times. Not surprising that his 3 pt % is what it is. In the video, an announcer referred to him as WS's defensive specialist. It can be argued whether that is IU's greatest need, but if he transfers to IU, that should be the expectations. Offense should be viewed as a bonus.

I saw a small clip of JJ Redick talking about how some people complain that there is no defense in the NBA and that its not because players arent trying in the NBA but there is SOOOO much better spacing. He also added that the college game hasnt evolved at all. Teams (not just Duke) are still running the same stuff they did when he was there. So ill agree shooting isnt the only way to score, but we need that skill upgraded accross the board to give our work horses room to do what they do best. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn’t wrong and it’s why shooting is a necessity in college. Teams can pack it in, etc. I don’t understand a high volume 3 pt shooter who can’t hit them. IU as of the way it looks and unless someone significantly improves could potentially be a worse shooting team than this year.

IU as of the way it looks and unless someone significantly improves could potentially be a worse shooting team than this year. I'd love to see a team with shooters have them hoist shots up 3-5 feet behind the 3 point line. Some kids are plenty strong to get those shots in a decent clip if practiced. Look what the addition of Trae Young did for Oklahoma - until he was triple teamed when he crossed half court.

Don’t understand the negativity toward Logan Duncomb ; the few minutes I saw him thought he looked for the limited minutes and situation. Think he’s a good player and would fit in well in Woody’s offense. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when we had 7 scholarship players available, coach still didn't think he was worth a try. Now, if he's back next year then coach must have hope and think he will help the team more than some transfer, so, if he's back, I'll regain a bit of optimism. Right now, I don't have a lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. Outside of the Northwestern game, I don't think Woody intentionally kept better options on the bench. You want to play, take it from him. I could see that happening next season. Don't know who, but surely someone takes a leap. Maybe it's Miller Kopp!?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
