Dingle got enough looks early on, but excelled once he limited his 3 point shooting and went to the mid-range game. At times, it was hard to see how he was the second leading scorer in the country. If he comes back, the midrange game is what I would like to see him emphasize. Brady, he had limited pt except in a few games. Shot looks a little funky but he showed flashes. Think with more minutes, his consistency would hopefully better.
We will have to agree to disagree. I think he was a victim of really bad chemistry and conflicting styles. At the end he resigned himself to getting his own shot just like Alleyne. He got next to no screens from Joel and he got no setups from Jenkins.
You still buyin at Novita?
Mitchell might not be much of a shooter but is still quite a good scorer inside. Reminds be a bit of a slightly smaller thinner version of Trayce Jackson-Davis. Davis also doesn’t have a jumper but was always an athletic mismatch up front. I can see Mitchell playing a similar type of role.
That was if we get Pryor. Consolation prize is you get to see me
Is this Mitchell guy the same guy who is testing the NBA waters......without being a decent shooter?
Thanks, good counterbalance to a fan base that tends to overhype every single recruit every year (myself included).I would be careful a wee bit about Smith being the second coming. I have never seen him play but was cautioned by someone who saw about 10 of his games this year that he is a good player, no question, but his stats were somewhat inflated by a terrific 4 game NIT run, particularly in 3 point shooting and assists.
Anyway, he was 10-13 from 3 which drove his % over 40. Those games certainly count obviously but in his previous 33 games shot 33%, which in itself was above his previous 3 year numbers, 28% twice being his previous highs.
Assists wise he had 38 in the 4 games, a terrific number, which drove his game average over 7; in the previous 33 games, he averaged 4.8, which was .5 an assist lower per game than Jenkins, and for Smith, a full assist a game higher than his best previous.

Are you going back to include games from his previous season in that total?Assists wise he had 38 in the 4 games, a terrific number, which drove his game average over 7; in the previous 33 games, he averaged 4.8, which was .5 an assist lower per game than Jenkins, and for Smith, a full assist a game higher than his best previous.

It’s not about stats, it’s about his abilities. He can do things nobody on the team could last year. I couldn’t care less if he gets half the assists if his play helps whoever gets credit for the assist.I would be careful a wee bit about Smith being the second coming.

So you’re saying he played his best games in the post season against legit competition?I would be careful a wee bit about Smith being the second coming.

The bigger concern statistically would be what he did before Utah’s starting PG went down.
