Will be putting one of these out every couple days over the next few weeks.

We can get Haliburton to score 10ppg and play with the ball in his hand a lot more than this year.
I honestly would like to see Prohm slow the game down some in the half court, and let Haliburton do what he does best.... value the ball. We would need to move the ball around via passes more compared with all the iso stuff we saw with Wigginton and Shayok though. You see this with Virginia and K-State. You also see this with a lot of mid-major programs.
The keys for us next year:
1- Find a primary scorer (go-to guy)
2- Play better D overall like we did in the first 2/3 of this season
3- Rebound better
If we can do that, we'll have a puncher's chance at the Tournament again.
Tyrese has the ability to get to the paint, but he'll have to show he's willing to do it. This year's scouting report had to be something like 'great in the open court but will only shoot uncontested 3s.'

I would append to this that I think we need to speed up overall -- Tyrese was always hawking for lazy passes on the perimeter and pretty deadly when finishing.
I can see a case to be slower in the half-court, but I think we need to speed up overall. We are not going to have the volume guys who can dependably break down even good defenders in the Big 12 one-on-one like Shayok, Wigginton, and Horton-Tucker next year. We might need to "muck up" games and break up a half-court monotony more often.
See the above --
"However, if he gets loose going the other way, he is a pretty creative finisher at the rim and has a nice Euro step. He is long and will look to pick off errant passes."
"His limited 'shot-creation' in the half-court is not the case in the full-court."
Yeah, Tyrese is great in the open court and I think Conditt is a big that can get up and down. Griffin is a good athlete who could use his athleticism in the open court better than probably being in a half court set where he is still developing his game.
