Portal Point Guards

At this point you almost have to get dirty and start having the GM make offers to agents and try to lure a point guard into the portal. Jeff Goodman talked about teams trying to lure RJ into the portal last offseason.

I know he's not a PG but things seem awful quiet around RJ Luis (St. Johns transfer). 6'7 scorer.

Aside from just curiosity, if we end up with Seth at the one waiting for the freshman to mature and Ian leaves, we will need someone at the two.

It is a stretch I know. Just spitballing here.

I said this earlier this week about Bruce Thornton. I agree
 
Yeah when they say “he’s 6ft” he’s really 5’8 or 5’9.

Unless he’s willing to come off the bench we need big guards 6’3 or taller.
You can have 2 small guards in your back court like we did this past season but both must be solid jump shooters, you make up what it costs you on defense with jump shooting. You can have a small PG that is a solid jump shooter to pair with Seth who struggles as a jump shooter because Seth is solid positional size and + defense of either guard position. NIgel Pack is small but he is solid jump shooting and ball handle, he would fit in well.

Do we need a good backup point guard? I'm thinking we do. In which case, how about this Indiana St senior, Samage Teel. Good shooting and assist numbers and looks quietly competent. Might even be good enough to start, if needed.

I didn't realize I wasn't still banned on the DOOK forum- I haven't been there in probably 15 years. I went there a minute ago and in poor taste posted a huge finger wagging smack down.

I remembered immediately I am a Tar Heel and behavior like that is beneath me so i deleted it immediately.

Felt good for that split second though, didn't it?

I think Carolina should entice Josh Hubbard from Miss State to enter the portal.
He declared for the draft but will go undrafted. Carolina starting this week can offer him more than many SEC schools that may have interest, including his current team.
Ty Lawson like player that is an absolute DOG!
 
Reading a ton of shady stuff about Wright. He'd be ours for a season at best only if we made the sweetest deal- sounds like his dad is basically pimping him to whomever and you can bet as soon as the grass looks greener elsewhere he'll jump again.

I'd pass on this type.

Sounds like a custom-made fit for programs like Alabama, Arkansas, and choke (dook).
 
We have no one lined up so anyone sounds good but can Lee make the leap from the Ivy league and still be a competent/ effective player for us?
 
Scraping the bottom of the barrel and looking for a diamond in the rough. Got to be someone willing to play PG for Davis for 1 million dollars (not bad for 6 months of work).
 
Must be a pretty shallow barrel if we are already "scraping the bottom" with thousands of peeps still moving into and out of the portal, lol! Peeps are priceless these days!

UNC sucks -No Bigs, wait what?
UNC sucks-too small at 4-wait what?
UNC sucks-too small at wing-wait what?
UNC sucks-no PG......

I say give up since it has been a whole week since you started offering peeps!

I won't "SMH" because too many peeps are showing signs of concussion already!

Come on, now. Wright is hardly scraping the bottom. If Eliot is the "rich-man's" Cadeau, Wright would be "upper-middle-class".

Trouble is (despite his dad's UNC fandom), as @Geth correctly noted, dad is out on a Supermarket Sweep shopping trip.
 
For me it is still a hard no for those who are only interested playing teams against each other! Although I acknowledge it might be hard to tell the difference these days.
