The Detroit Pistons respectfully withdraw you from consideration as their GM.I would take you over Jenkins
My dislike for him has nothing to do with his skills or how good he is....it's the way he dictated absolutely everything. He made nobody other than maybe Soriano better. Even at Kadary's worst, he makes everyone around him better.
For this discussion, though, the topic is really narrow. Jenkins was built like a pre-pubescent girl. Georgia was a team of bullies who actively tried to eliminate space and make it ugly. Jenkins was awful with 50/50 balls and physical play.
The truth is we could have used his ball-handling this year, but he just can't play nice with others. He can't help himself with the selfish play and he would kill any chance at chemistry.
The Enright on DePaul reminds me of him...just races up with the ball at 100 mph, picks up his dribble and then the play goes wherever he decides. Just double the shot attempts for Jenkins.
I like the lower turnovers per game of C and would consider a guy who protects the ball a little better.
Is this a career, a season, or 7 games to start a year?
Agreed. The question was about emulating an alternate approach rather than undoing one filled with bad muscle memory.

HARD TO PRODUCE GETTING ONLY 24 MINUTES A GAME WHEN RICHMOND IS GETTING 33.
Based on a 30 game season that's about $1000 a minute!
So what you're saying is that in your head you're imagining this is just what he looked like as a first team all big east player last year and it's his ceiling?
Jenkins was 1-11 from the field and 0-6 from 3 in the last Motor City Cruise game. He’s ranked 197th in the G league in scoring. Quincy Olivari from Xavier is averaging 23 points and more assists. His teammate, Aaron Estrada is somehow averaging more assists. Jenkins is shooting 29.2% from the field this season and 21.2% from 3.
Mind-boggling a player 1-10 from the field and with those shooting %s for the season would take that 11th shot, but he has no conscience out there. I bet it was a step-back three with a close to full shot clock where nobody else touched the ball.

5-2 with combined losses of 4 points. Are we at our floor?

The Georgia loss stunk, but the sky-is-falling stuff is wild to me.

We've got the weakest schedule in the entire conference. Need to beat teams ranked ahead of us, which is currently only Marquette.
No we do not have the weakest schedule in the conference

This is a list of all the schools remaining schedules (in the far right column). St. John's comes in 72nd, weakest of all the BIG EAST schools.

That's for balance, but our already played SOS is decent compared to rest of conference (even if not great overall)This is a list of all the schools remaining schedules (in the far right column). St. John's comes in 72nd, weakest of all the BIG EAST schools.

Surely you appreciate that three of our four toughest non conference games have already been played and therefore not considered by the statistic you just cherry pickedThis is a list of all the schools remaining schedules (in the far right column). St. John's comes in 72nd, weakest of all the BIG EAST schools.

We're dead list and played one school that will dance. How is our SOS decent compared to anyone, being that we are dead last the rest of the way out?
