I like Blakes and would like to have him back. But agreed, for the most part he doesn't seem to handle spot minutes the way Goldwire did. And every time he plays well, it seems he regresses after. Wouldn't blame the kid for moving on, but I'll take a senior back up PG in a heartbeat.

I don't trust Blakes one bit even as a backup at this point. Plays too much with his hands and picks up dumb fouls and can't shoot. Not trying to say anyone is wrong but that's just from I'm seeing.
The more he plays, the more evident his shortcomings become.
He's really just a third string, emergency point guard. Even next year. For Duke anyway.
Makes a lot of sense. I think Stewart will actually be better than Mitchell next year because he will mature mentally and physically and in his game. And get stronger. Watching Mitchell - he’s had some good games but also some really funky ones. Just hasn’t yet developed an offensive game.
Really good piece on Khaman on espn. Alot of hype around the young man and you can't help but be excited about he and Cooper in the front court.
He will take time to adjust like Lively but he will be good once he puts it altogether.
Raw and OAD is probably my least favorite type of player, but this guy looks really good. Agree it may take a while; even Lively struggled with his timing early on. But we got Brown to address that need and play the Young role.
Maluach will be a damn good player for us. He's better than Lively was at the stage of the game.
He’s not raw . Just needs to get used to the physical play at this level and not staying around the perimeter.
The team he's on now stinks (City Oilers). They have him setting a lot of picks. Hopefully Jon makes better use of him.
Omg me and Bleed agreed! lol Bleed he will be . I trust in Scheyer and the staff . This kid will be good .
