Don't worry about tonight. We all know we had no bodies. Heck, Javon Williams got some playing time.

Next year we will be a final four team. Not a doubt in my mind.

I know Dan's been saying that, thought you have as well. Yes Bazz is coming back next year and we are going to be damn good.

Don't you people see the strategy here? Bazz was given front row seats to witness what the season will look like next year, if he decides to go pro. Obviously he can not allow the slaughter of baby seals, err Huskies. So we're good.

Just need to stay healthy next year, and we'll be good.

At this point, I'm almost as concerned about Deandre going pro as I am Shabazz.

I think everyone will be back. Deandre can come back a little stronger and play himslef into a lottery pick. His game is perfect for the NBA. He does need one more year though. And Shabazz will not get drafted because he most likely will not be able to play in the NBA pre draft camps this year anyway. This will kill his stock.

Dion't mean to piss on your parade, I say very good not great. I know what you are trying to say but greatness does not start in November. We still have to fix the donut (at least we will have options) and hopefully find a way to move DD to the three. The only way that happens if Bazz returns is to move Boat to 6th man. Boat = Johnny Gwynn (but better).

I hope Deandre doesn't make that decision because at this point he's only slightly better than Donte Greene who used to play for SarahCuse. And I believe he's riding the couch somewhere if I'm not mistaken.

I just don't get it at this point, why do you guys insist on having DD playing the 3?

Dd's time at the four has been one for the ages, and should continue(he could move around to the 3 during some rotations and match ups). Him and the 4 is a revelation. He is like a Rich mans roscoe. Imagine if we had personnel to find dd on the pick and pops. his absurd wingspan allows him to hit Durant like fadeaways and be menacing on weak side help. He also an insane shooter. boat needs to come off the bench though next year

Ollie will have some interesting choices to make next year.

Bazz, Boat, OC and Samuel in the back court, I'd assume they will take 80 minutes at 1 and 2 and probably 20-30 minutes at 3.
Nolan, Brimah. Olander and Facey will take 40 minutes at 5 and probably 10-20 minutes at 4.
That leaves 20 minutes at 3 and 20 minutes at 4 for Daniels and Giffey with Daniels probably getting close to 30 of those minutes.

That's a pretty deep team if you ask me. If Bazz decides to leave, we'll be a little thin in the backcourt so we'll have to play bigger and Daniels will spend majority of his time at the three. Still a good team, but not nearly as good if Bazz comes back. With Bazz back, improved Nolan, Facey and Brimah; UConn is a contender for the final four and national championship.
