    I don’t see how Sims, Roach, Coleman, and DO don’t all play 30 mpg next year.

    Well that's basically what I tried to lay out (except with Sims at 28 mpg mainly because I think he is going to be in foul trouble a lot).

    It is a lot harder to figure out where the other minutes are going to go, especially at the other guard spot.  I think there is a good chance that Long and Febres get ~20 minutes each and that everybody else just gets scraps.

    is there a chance that Jones redshirts?  Did he get a redshirt this year?

  2. Let's assume Roach comes back ( I would put the likelihood at 80%).  Let's also assume Jones comes back, but on a minutes restriction. 

    If so, I would put the minutes allocation at something like this:

    • Coleman, SO      32 min - 32 PG 
    • Long, JR             16 min  - 4 PG, 12 SG  
    • Ramey, FR           10 min  - 4 PG,   6 SG
    • Roach, SR           30 min  -            13 SG, 17 SF
    • Jones, JR            12 min  -               4 SG,    8 SF
    • Febres, SO           15 min  -             5 SG, 10 SF
    • Liddell, FR              8 min  -                           5 SF,  3 PF                      
    • Sims, SO              28 min -                                     7 PF, 21 C
    • Osetkowski, SR  26 min -                                   22 PF,   4 C            
    • Hamm, SO             8  min -                                      8 PF
    • Hepa, FR               10 min -                                                  8 C
    • Hayes, FR              5 min -                                                   5 C
    • Cunningham, FR - redshirt?  

    Pretty tough to find time for everybody.  Somebody is going to get close to zero minutes or will need to redshirt.  If we get Cremo, then I would assume that Jones will be out for the year.

    My thought is that Febres will start, but that Long will be the first one off the bench subbing for whichever of Coleman, Roach, or Febres needs a break.

    I HOPE we limit Osetkowski to a good 26 min per game instead of the sloppy 35 minutes he played last year.

  3. Balbay was a tremendous defender. Maybe the best defensive guard we have ever had here. 

    Balbay was also one of the worst offensive players we have had that played such an important role for us.

    The good always outweighed the bad for me though.

  4. I'm a Technology Director at an Austin division of a fortune-500 company making industrial software / hardware products.  We are finally making the jump from Waterfall-ish 2-3 year release cycles to Agile (SAFe).  We have had a variety of consultants helping us plan to make the jump, but we are really just getting started.

    I'm looking for advice from folks who have actually gone through this.  We will have ~300 software developers + testers worldwide working on a main system and a number of smaller software products.  Some are certified by various bodies.  Some have hardware components.

    So please post tips here.  Would love your thoughts regardless of whether you were an engineer in the trenches or an executive leading the whole thing.

    Also PM me if you are open to a longer off-line conversation.  Thanks!

  5. Haha. Well F me. I guess I'm part of the 95% too. I watched it like 20 times and it always looked like it didn't hit the glass.

     

    But at least I realize that if it hit the glass first it is a goal tend  regardless of where it was in relation to the goal.

  6. I'm amazed at the percent of people that think his block was a goaltend...  because he blocked it into the glass.  Then others say it couldn't have been a goaltend because it was on the way up. 

    It is like 95% of people have no idea about the rules of the game.

  7. Gotta love Lance. He will go right at players. So refreshing after all the love fest between opponents these days. Same with Patrick Beverly.

    I don't want the entire NBA to revert back to 2000, but it needs a few guys like that.

  8. I'm writing this from the Andaz Papagayo in Costa Rica. The flight from Houston is only 3 hours via SWA. The vibe here is far better than Cancun. Everyone is super friendly. You can drink the water. There are monkeys in the trees.

    Well worth the marginally longer travel time and slightly higher cost. And this comes from someone who loves Cancun.

  9. Went to the Hyatt Zilara last summer with the wife.  It is smaller than the Hyatt Ziva, but all of the rooms are ocean front and there are NO KIDS.  We had a great time, especially considering that we stayed for free on Hyatt points.  The entire 4-night trip cost about $200 out of pocket and that was all tips.
