Dont take everything so literally I just like to mess with the Roscoe haters on this forum but I do have a good feeling about Scoe stepping up next year. Roscoe is the heart and soul of this team and any one with some basketball iq would realize this. He should and better be captain of this team next year, and he will have a big jump in his game next year.

I doubt there is a Roscoe "hater" anywhere to be found....he's the kind of kid you have to root for when he's playing Roscoe-basketball......you on the 0therhand are very difficult to root for.........;)

i like the fact that you showed due diligence and looked this stuff up but what your forgetting to mention is that those teams had dominant big men who could score, rebound, and defend which is why you can get away with two little guard and a Lamb at the 3. If we had big men that could score and dominate in the post then it wouldnt matter what height our guards were which is why I said we needed to go big this year but good effort. Also ,those teams had leaders as guards like Kemba, like AJ Price, like Ben Gordon who could rally a team and also score buckets when the team needed them to.

I'm not forgetting anything. I'm pointing out the fact that two small guards can and do work. Do you need players that know their role and can rebound/defend and score playing with them? Yes, I believe you do. Although if you look at those teams only 1 had a "big" 3. The others had Rip, Denham/Anderson, Lamb. They had bigs who did play defense and rebounded and scored, that I agree with, but the 3 was never that "big" (relative to Roscoe). If anything Roscoe is closer to the size of the 4's in those lineups (K-Free, Boone, Adrien, Roscoe). Only Boone was a "big" 4. I think a bigger issue is that most of those teams were built around juniors and seniors and this was built on freshman and sophomores. If there was a way to keep this team intact a year, it would probably be a pretty darn good team.

Roscoe is less of the problem than Drummond and Oriakhi, but Roscoe still has a lot to work on over the summer.

lol ok good. I would love to see Roscoe become a consistent 3 point shooter. Which I do think he can do he just needs to take his time on his shot. A lot of the times I just feel he will rush his shot. As far as him being a captain he does play harder than anyone on the team but he is not very vocal so we will see.

I would also like to add that I am a big fan of Scoe and am an original member of #TeamScoe. He's been my favorite player from this group since before last season even started and I saw him working on his game at the gym. He probably won't ever lead the team in scoring but he can dominate on defense and on the boards. Everyone that watches him for 4 years will remember him as a great Husky not necessarily in terms of stats but in terms of work ethic, hustle and overall value as a player and teammate.
