I can see Baugh fixing his shot...
But his handle and quickness is where he will struggle offensively in the league.
He would need to be a 3 and D type of player in the league and that would mean his shot would have to improve to an elite level.
Disagree. Baugh could routinely get to the rim. And if he had been a perimeter threat, it would have made getting to the rim easier. But what we'll miss from him is his length on D (DJ too). It gave us great versatility to guard even with Cisse & Dandridge on the bench. But as for shooting, it wouldn't take much for Baugh to have become a scoring threat. I'm not talking about 20 pt avg, just 10-12 a game with a perimeter shot. I believe he will get there with minutes & gained confidence.
There is little historical comp to indicate a 3 ppg guy becomes a 10 ppg guy if he's staying in similar competition.
See Damien Wilson, David Nickleberry, etc.
What was Baugh getting, 10-12 mins/game? Just a little improvement & playing 30+mins would get him there. Won't happen at Memphis but can happen based upon where he ends up.
If Baugh is getting 30 minutes a game he has improved greatly, is on a bad team or has transferred down to a team in a lesser league.

I'm just playing. When Wilfong hit that shot, I was in high school in Memphis and knew nothing about ORU. And, I was happy when he did.

I get the feeling Baugh still has big dreams from getting pumped up as a pro prospect. He's looking bigger than mid-major.
Baugh with a consistent perimeter shot is NBA level with his defense & length. It's a shame to lose him. But if he isn't being developed here, he should transfer. Maybe he'll get that perimeter game going somewhere.

Disagree. Baugh could routinely get to the rim. And if he had been a perimeter threat, it would have made getting to the rim easier. But what we'll miss from him is his length on D (DJ too). It gave us great versatility to guard even with Cisse & Dandridge on the bench. But as for shooting, it wouldn't take much for Baugh to have become a scoring threat. I'm not talking about 20 pt avg, just 10-12 a game with a perimeter shot. I believe he will get there with minutes & gained confidence.
Routinely get to the rim?

So just a few more minutes is all it takes to go from a 28% career 3-shooter, to a 38% NBA potential guy?
No problem!

He MIGHT be gone. But there's a difference in asking where he is, and continually acting like you know he's gone.

Why is it bad to speculate with Nesbit and not other players ? Isn’t that what we do here ? Remember last year when Stokes suddenly disappeared from the bench?

What's the big deal. Are you afraid he might have some success post Memphis? We're taking about a guy with exception physical skills simply going from 3.4 pts avg in 10-12 mins per game to 10 pts in 30 mins playing time avg. That's not much to expect. Baugh just needs to find the mins & if he improves his shot in process, it's not much to expect.

Baugh's high game this year was 10 points and he did that one time this year. I like Baugh and he played really hard but it was hard to have him and ALo in the rotation going forward because the offense suffers. I hope he finds a good fit somewhere.
Agree but look out if he develops a perimeter game. He'll be next level given his defense, his ability to get to the rim & his length.
Quote:Baugh could routinely get to the rim.
Quote:And if he had been a perimeter threat, it would have made getting to the rim easier.
Out of all the stuff you make up, this is possibly the funniest. This is how it played out in the 9 games after Lomax got hurt, for get to the rim Baugh.
FT ATTEMPTS
35 Williams
29 Boogie
25 Cisse
21 DJ
18 Nolley
17 LQ
10 Dandridge
8 Jayden
6 Baugh
Baugh can supposedly get to the rim at will, but somehow he was dead last on the team in free throw attempts. According to Atlanta, stats don't matter.
