If you divide that by 15 then you get roughly 13.33333333 minutes per player.

That's not the split.

Just saying.

Lol. So much wisdom here.

Some of you guys get bent out of shape when anyone posts a lineup prediction or suggestion of a lineup that doesn’t include Jeffries in it. I love DJ. So it’s not like I suggest a lineup that doesn’t include DJ because I don’t like him or his game. That said, I hate to break it to you guys but DJ isn’t as good of a shooter that Quinones and Boogie are. I know that the staff loves Lester’s shooting ability. We needed outside shooting and Quinones was signed because he meets that need.

You are the only one I see here getting bent out of shape.

As usual.

So sensitive.

Swing and a miss as usual from you. I’ll let you know when you get something right about me. Ask yourself why would I or anyone be sensitive over one player starting over another? With the exception of the said player being your son, it’s senseless to assume or proclaim I or anyone else would be sensitive about what the starting lineup will look like. It’s just an asinine statement. But we know why you hurdle your insults and swipes at me. Tell Bluto to send me an invite to his board.

Tell him to send me one too.

Me too!

I really doubt he comes here with the bigs we already have. Hope I’m wrong though.

Back to the matter at hand...

Legit question, there might be less minutes up front and we are pretty set with a frontcourt of Wiseman / Achiuwa / Jeffries... Where does Blackshear fit in there?

I'd love (LOVE) to have a player of his quality and experience, but while we might have some wing minutes available, is this too much talent...

... I know, no such thing, but still?

First big off the bench? Harris/Q first guard from the bench. Oh and Thomas somewhere in there.

I'd say the starting frontcourt would be Wiseman, Blackshear and Achiuwa with Jeffries being a 6th man type. I always thought we were one short of a real frontcourt players. Thomas and Maurice are thin and don't strike me as physical. Wiseman is tall but also has struggled against physical players and from the games I've watched him play he has a tendency to get into foul trouble.

Blackshear would be huge because you would still have a physical presence on the floor even when those situations happen with Wiseman. Jeffries is more of a wing player to me; not really a kid I see as a big.

If Blackshear comes to Memphis & is allowed to compete (the only way he'd come), he'll earn lots of minutes. Been watching some video, he's really good & we have no one with his strength.

Agree. IMO, Blackshear would start at the 4 and get all the minutes he wants, with Wiseman at the 5 and Precious at the 3. DJ first man off the bench. Thomas would be in the rotation, too. Mix and match.

It all depends on how much exposure to pro scouts he can get in Memphis. I would think that’d be a major factor in his decision.

I wonder where he would get the most exposure to NBA scouts....shouldn't even be a question

If Blackshear were to come here we would have the tallest starting lineup in the nation no doubt.

I was told yesterday by someone who’s been watching the scrimmages that Lance Thomas has been killing it. There are some close to the program that feel like he could easily start. Just passing along stuff I’ve been told. Like everything, we shall see. I’m confident that Lance will contribute. And playing time and starting spots will have to be earned between now and the first game.

If you would tell him that you are sorry for everything.

Most of this would be over.

WWWD?

Maybe Dandridge isn't playing this year?

Cody Toppert is going to help raise Precious' game

if Penny wanted to go small...ie 4 guards and a big...he'd have several choices for the 5.
