I can see a comparison of Jalen to Perry about athleticism. But their games are different and Jalen brings a lot more aggressiveness to the game. I agree he needs to up his athleticism to have a chance at the NBA… he can stand to strengthen up and it will help him more than it did Perry to add muscle because Jalen plays aggressive. I’m not saying I think he’ll be NBA caliber. But if he can build his body he has a shot. Not everyone in the NBA is uber athletic. What counts is effectiveness.

@drgnslayr the less athletic people tend to be gigantors, ex. Z-Bo

That and they are usually tremendously skilled too. Zach definitely qualifies there as well, and Jokic comes to mind.

Maybe I’m over-projecting… it’s nice to have positive thoughts between now and basketball season. Not sure why we would recruit Martin if he won’t see the floor? Especially since he only has one year. Guys like him have sure racked up points on us in the past. He has no business camping in the low post. But he could pull out another team’s 4 on the perimeter, opening up the middle for Dave.
I agree that Jalen needs to gain athleticism because he sure isn’t a 4 at the NBA level. He doesn’t really have the strength to guard the 4 either. Kid needs to muscle up and he should be doing that this off-season.
I think a redshirt would help Sydney. Especially since he has only two years of eligibility left.
I expect Jalen to get most the minutes at the 4… but I was thinking about bigger lineups… something Self seems to be moving away from anyways.
I’m not saying Cam won’t play. I think he does play plenty as the primary back up to McCormack and spot minutes at the 4 spot on offense if Cam’s playing next to Clemence or Lightfoot. I just don’t see him being able to play alongside McCormack because that becomes a real defensive liability with each one’s lack of overall athleticism and this team isn’t shaping up to be all that good defensively next season, especially considering adding the ISU transfer to seemingly replace Agbaji is a terrible defender.
Jalen Wilson isn’t going to be an NBA player. He’s got a very similar style of game to Perry Ellis and Perry never really came close to making an NBA roster.
And therein lies the current problem (and he had a good season), Dave has kind of become absolete. The makeup and even strengths of this team do not serve his skillset. He should play fifteen, twenty minutes a game - tops. If he plays more (and Bill is loyal, sometimes to a fault) it will not, longterm, be good for the team.

Dave fits better with this group than last season. Last season’s team couldn’t shoot at all to spread the floor and open things up for Dave. This team should be much improved from deep which helps Dave out a bunch. Remy Martin running the show is going to make KU much better offensively than last year.
-
Dave is the best 5 on the roster next year.
-
As has been mentioned - -Dave will have a soild year next year we need Dave and he showed well through about the 2nd half of the season - -Ku going to be able to spread the floor Dave have more room to operate with the Guards we have Ysufu - - Lands Braun - -Dave is gonna be just fine - it’s still going to be four out and one in and with the improved players we have going to be a lot better scoring the ball - - & like BShark said - -Dave is the best 5 we have and he has gotten better. - He saved our ass multiple times

@BShark but should we go more than 10 or 15 mpg with a traditional 5?
-
@Marco Who would you play ahead of McCormack? The D2 transfer that’s less athletic than McCormack? The JuCo who’s about 3-4 inches shorter and nowhere near skilled enough to be a big factor to this year? The freshman who’s softer than a wet paper bag? The 14th scholarship player who couldn’t beat Dave out last season? The stretch 4 who may or may not be back next season?

Dave can and should get all the minutes he can handle.

I’d play and start Dave, just not for more than 20 mpg, mix and match in Martin and Curry for the other 20. The guy is only good for a half anyway. Second half Dave, right?
-
@Marco Sydney Curry is nowhere near ready enough to play yet and there’s a reason why Cam Martin was a low major recruit that dropped to a D2 player. Dave was a McDonald’s All-American. He was also by far KU’s best overall player the last 2/3 of last season and the only reason KU didn’t finish in the bottom half of the B12 last season.
Just because Dave doesn’t play your preferred style of basketball doesn’t justify trying to limit your best offensive player to just 20 minutes a game on a team that’s going to be crap on defense and have to outscore people. Dave has to increase his minutes to near 30+ per game for KU to reach their full potential next season.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 it’s not about his style. He is not skilled or aggressive enough to be called a true 5, yet due to his too high a motor, almost mechanical style nor can her play anywhere else. I am saying, he just doesn’t fit with the current line-up.

All of that is a load of bullshit. You’re contradicting yourself with your own statements saying Dave isn’t aggressive, yet has a high motor. You’re letting personal bias against Dave cloud your judgement on how good Dave is. Dave isn’t the most athletic guy out there and guess what lesser athletic basketball players have to be to succeed in basketball? Fundamentally sound which looks a whole helluva lot like being mechanical.
You also clearly don’t realize that Self has built next season’s team around Dave to play to his strengths. Dave and Remy have very complementary skills to execute a lot of pick and roll this season or to just iso Remy opposite of Dave and have easy dishes to Dave of the defense helps off of Dave to cover Remy. Then you got Yesufu, JCL, and Braun all more than capable of lighting it up from deep. Then you’ll end up with Wilson, Clemence, or Cam sitting in the corner on the same side as Remy waiting for a kick out if their man helps on a Remy drive.
This team will not be anywhere near as offensively challenged as last year’s team was. McCormack will be a 15 and 8 guy and the second leading scorer for KU behind Remy Martin next season.

I mean you said Dave and Doke are good complementary bigs and Mitch a true PF who’ll play a lot of minutes with Dave my man. Don’t throw that rock too hard. Sometimes it ricochets.

For a guy who seems to think that he knows everything, you tend to overreach and be wrong quite a bit. I know that they won’t be as offensively challenged, which is one of the reasos why I stand by everything that I said. He was important to our team this past season, and I said so. And he will be an important piece this season too, and will undoubtedly play and should. I just don’t want him to play more than about 20 mpg, tops - and I don’t think he will.
The team has morphed is what I’m saying, completely different personnel for a different style. It is not going to nor it should it be a forcefeed Dave in the post offense anymore. I imagine he’ll average about 9 or 10 ppg, which would put him about 4th on the team in scoring. Wilson - if he comes back - will average more than that and probably even Yesufu, Remy the leader ofcourse. And I haven’t even mentioned Braun, Long, C. Martin or any of the others, but you did and while doing so seemed to think that it validated your point while not even coming close.

Dave was playing good ball by the end of the season. The start was BAD. But he had a great conference season and I think he will have a good 2021-2022 campaign.

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Remy to Kansas:

I don’t think having a high motor necessarily implies aggressiveness. How many times last year did we pan Dave for his middling rebound numbers or his proclivity to shoot a 12-15 ft. jumper instead of driving to the bucket or his inability to schedule a “block party” ala Doke?
That said, I think there are reasons Dave may not have been as aggressive as he could have been. As you said, last year’s team didn’t have the personnel to carve out space for Dave to operate as well as he may be able to do with next year’s squad, which I agree is being assembled to help unclog the lane.
I think too that Dave was obscured by the shadow of Doke for the early part of last year, trying to hold himself up to unrealistic expectations and trying to be what he isn’t. Towards the latter part of the season you could almost see him emerging from Doke’s massive shadow and playing to his strengths. He also became pretty competent at quickly recognizing double teams and passing out of them. Next year, I think we’ll make people pay big time for using that tactic, which should allow Dave’s more aggressive side to shine.
I think the jury is still out on how aggressive Dave can be, but I wouldn’t conflate a high motor with being aggressive.
-
I can concur with everyone on the Dave topic… just maybe worded differently.
Dave has a big motor in some areas… not all areas. He applied his motor to where he knew he could be effective. He limited himself a bit with this for two reasons: first… he was needed to play a lot of minutes and had to try to keep some energy in reserve. Second… to prevent more foul trouble. I feel certain he was coached into “energy management”… and wisely so!
I read Marco’s statement different. Dave will stick out different from the rest on this squad because he is a specialist. He doesn’t have a broad range of “game.” He’s specialized as a low post, sometimes mid-range, scorer. He has no business putting the ball on the floor often, or doing about anything on the perimeter except set screens. Compare to Cam, who has a soft touch from the perimeter, is tough on the drive and with good handles, and has a range of shots to draw from. I think Dave’s brand of basketball will stick out a bit when matched around the other players.
Texas-Hawk gives a good perspective on how this team may be able to do more on offense, including making Dave more effective by using him better on high ball screens, and getting post feeds from different situations instead of last year, which was just a perimeter, structured and stiff, feed to the post. This year Dave should receive a lot more feeds from people on the move, on the dribble.
We can converse all we want but none of us know how this will play out until they lace up and start playing. It blows my mind still from last year how we largely wasted away offensive potential by becoming a team just based on standing on the trey line feeding Dave. As much as I adore Marcus… he was no point guard. I remain firm with my position that the PG is the most important position on any team, even when you have someone like Doke in the paint. Doke was nothing without Dot! Let’s hope we get a version of Remy - Dave going like we did Dot - Doke!

Got to differ on Dave’s Minutes - he will still average around 15-18 minutes per, true won’t have to be force feed - the floor going to be a lot bigger this Season - -more spread then even before- But Dave will still be to vital of a piece for this team for only 9-10 minutes -

Dam dude I thought you were saying Dave would be getting only 9-10 minutes per game - -instead you were talking points per - still have to disagree a little. I think we probably looking like still Dave getting around 12 - -maybe even possibly 13 a game this Season with the floor even more spread. - -thing is teams won’t be able to clog things up as much as they are going to be forced to guard the outside the wings and such with our new additions - One thing is Dave is a pretty dam good free throw shooter and with Remy being able to distribute I think Dave will get even more opportunities at the line and be a part of the reason for the 12-13 per

No Doubt buddy - - no doubt at all I agree 100 %. As hard as it may be hard to believe , I think Dave is to vital to big of a piece on this upcoming team not to. - -We still going to be 4 around 1 and Dave has to be that 1. - I just myself I think Dave is going to be the one taking the most minutes and then spelled by Mitch & Martin - -the only time I could possibly see an all 5 out type of Scenario would be when Martin is on the floor. Again I will bring up the thing is with Martin is - - IF he can defend at all then when he is on the floor you will see him out stretching the floor which could be a very good thing - Still think Dave IS the one who needs to be on the floor the most

And with the make up of this upcoming roster that is exactly what I believe you will see happen. - Like people have said Marcus and I love Marcus mainly defensively but anyways Marcus was not a true point guard. - -With Remy being that true point guard I think you will be able to see Dave establish position more often then not and Remy be able to get him the ball with him being in THAT better position and thus more time at the line. - -We missed hm many many times when he had established last year - -would end up throwing around outside instead of going in when he was posed up. - -Thats not going to be the case this year.
-
@jayballer67 I don’t advocate for five out, just think that Cam, Clemence and Adams and even Curry will play, drastically cutting into Dave’s minutes. And I don’t that will be a bad thing, different looks and styles. It will be interesting to see who willingly accepts a redshirt this year, because it is a very deep team. If ever there were a year to use an almost two platoon system this would be it. But as we should all know by now, Bill isn’t too down with that idea.

Adams isn’t close to being ready to play very meaningful minutes - - Clemence probably have a hard time seeing many minutes. - -I think Adams is a serious contender for a red shirt year Like I said I think Dave is your biggest most important of the 5’s - it will be split between Dave , Martin and Mitch if anything

Reading over CJ Moore’s article on the Athletic about Remy and JCL. It seems to me that Bobby Hurley miiiight not be the best coach.
-
@BShark his brother is better than him, and was a much lesser player. I’ve always found that interesting - because Hurley was a great college player, and before his injury even working on a more than solid NBA career - how most great players don’t translate well to being good coaches. I’m not saying all, Howard has already shown that he can coach but most don’t. I have never been able to understand that.

Didn’t say you were full of shit, I said you claiming Dave isn’t a 5 or a good fit with this roster is bullshit. If you want to claim I said you’re full of shit, then go right ahead.
@FarmerJayhawk I still stand by my opinion on Mitch that he’d have been better off at the 4 spot last year. I also said as soon as Silvio left the program that Mitch at the 4 was no longer a good option because KU no longer had a game ready 5 to back up Dave other than Mitch. Is Mitch a better offensive player than Jalen? No, but Mitch is a better defender than Wilson is and even if he can’t keep all 4’s in front of him, Mitch is great at altering and blocking shots at the rim which is something that was pretty non-existent out of Wilson last season.
-
In CJ Moore’s recent article an unnamed assistant coach talked about how both Dave and Remy will really help each other and how they fit well together.
-
I think we can all agree that Remy was a huge get for us and should help take this team to a different level! I know I was really hopeful we would find a plug-n-play PG who already was proven. Bingo! Landing Lands told us this team roster isn’t done changing yet as we go over the allotment. I keep hearing Ochai is gone.
I think we are still recruiting for the coming year… and it won’t surprise me at all if another player is signed soon.

Yes! I really couldn’t even have dreamed of such a good addition this late in the game until I heard it was really likely on the 11th.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I didn’t say either, not as you are stating them. Said that the roster has kind of evolved away from his skillset, and that his minutes would and should diminish for the team that we have. There’s a reason why Coach brought in the bigs that can shoot, right? I didn’t say that he had no role, which is what you are implying.

@Texas-Hawk-10 And I say that’s a load of shit. While it’s cool that he’s coming back for team unity and whatnot he will - and for good reason - hardly see the court this year.

This is where I flat out disagree with you and am saying you are going to be wrong about once the season gets going. Dave McCormack is going to be the second best player on this team behind Remy Martin assuming Martin eventually withdraws from the draft. You don’t make your team better by playing your best post player fewer minutes.
This roster was constructed around’s Dave’s skill set to enhance Dave’s abilities. Remy Martin is an aggressive PG who looks to drive and will open up the pick and roll and high ball screen offense that Dotson ran with Doke to perfection two years ago. This version won’t be that good, but it’ll be really damn effective. The biggest reason it’ll be effective this year is because all the other rotation level players except for Jalen Wilson should be above averge shooters this season which means their guys can’t sag off like last season to double and triple team Dave which was a common occurrence last season and took Dave time to adjust to. Dave will see a lot more one on one this year.
This team is not more athletic than last year, but it is much more skilled and built around players whose skill sets compliment one another.
As for Mitch, I never said anything about Mitch playing big minutes this upcoming season or even being a rotation level guy next season. I’ve already said what I thought rotation next season would look like and Mitch wasn’t there. I said the starters would be R. Martin, Yesufu, Agbaji, Wilson, and McCormack with Harris, Braun, C. Martin being the primary bench guys with Pettiford and Clemence also getting time. With the JCL signing, that’s a pretty strong indicator of Agbaji not returning so JCL can swapped into Agbaji’s role.
-
The media sure seems to think Dave will have a big role.
-
All I remember from last yr is that most people, fans on here, some experts,
were wanting to bench big dave early on. So, my point is, we should trust coach and let these guys develop. I’m pretty excited to see how the new guys work out. I think some of them might play more than some think. I’m wondering if Juan, remy and yesufu can play at the same? To small?

@Crimsonorblue22 All three are 6’ or less, not really doable.
