Without getting into names of players, this is our roster:

6'0", 165# \

6'3", 191# | 1s and 2s

6'4", 196# /

6'7", 204# \

6'7", 216# |

6'8", 205# | 3s, pretty much?

6'8", 210# /

6'7", 220# \

6'7", 225# | 4s

6'8", 222# /

6'11", 270# > 5

There seem to be pretty clear demarcation points between players at the various positions. The guards are all 6'4" or less and under 200#. The wings are all 6'7" or 6'8" and 204# to 216#. The 4s are all 6'7" or 6'8" and 220# to 225#. And the lone 5 is 6'11" and 270 and fits squarely into that single category.

So, you're Tim Miles and I'm Kent Pavelka and I'm asking you what you want to do with that last scholarship. What kind of player are you looking at to fill that last roster spot?

Let me also ask you this, Tim: The guys on the team who are 204# to 216#, are there significant differences in their skillsets or would they all fulfill the same basic role on the team?

I would say I'll hang up and listen but since I'm Kent Pavelka, I guess I have to stay on the air.

Anyway, Tim, what's the word?

Anyway, Tim, what's the word?

If I'm Kent Pavelka and you're Tim Miles I would add this to the first question:  

 

"Or do you not care as long as the guy can flat fill it up like nobody else?"   

 

And you say:  

"Bangarang"

See, that's why you're the pro at this.  That's a great way to finish that question.

 

And if you were interviewing Doc Sadler rather than Tim Miles, instead of saying "Bangarang," he'd begin his answer by saying, "Agin ..."

Either a 1 year guard, 1 year big, or a top 100+ transfer.

Otherwise I'm spending yet another year eating that scholarship

6'7", 204# \

6'8", 205# | 3s, pretty much?

6'8", 210# /

6'7", 220# \

6'7", 225# | 4s

6'8", 222# /

6'11", 270# > 5

 

Next set of questions:

 

You have basically three guys at the 1 and 2.  How do you divide up those 80 minutes/game?

 

Some say Andrew White might play some 2 (he's the 6'7, 216# guy).  I'm thinking if he does, it won't be much, unless you look at our offense as basically a 3-guard offense.  I'd say the three guys at the 1- and 2-guard spots will probably average 22-25 min each.  That would leave about 5-10 minutes for someone else at those 2 positions.

 

But I'd say the 6'7, 216# kid is going to see between 25 and 30 minutes at either the 3 (or the 2nd 2-guard spot if you'd rather call it that.) 

 

If my estimates are accurate, that leaves a grand total of roughly 15-30 minutes per game to divide among the other three 3s.  How are those minutes going to be allocated?

 

Now the bigs.  There's 80 minutes to account for there.  There are 4 players (average 20 minutes each) or a couple of the threes could stretch into the 4 spot. 

 

There are plenty of minutes to be had there, spread among basically only 4 players.  How do you allocate those minutes?

Scenarios for White to be at the 2:

 

1. Only 1 of the 3 guards is on the court with him

2. The other team is playing 3 guards and thus we are playing two 2s at once.

 

Not often i'd say.
