I just don't see us scoring any points next year. We could be in for some really ugly basketball.

I looked at it every which way the other day to try to find out where the scoring is going to come from. The bottom line is, whether because of a change in system, simple maturity, extra work and effort, natural improvement or whatever, we need everyone to double their offensive output to average in the 50's. I think if they triple their offensive output, we'll get into the 70's.

I broke it down by points per minute, thinking that would help, but not really. Clark, Williams and Rosburg were all already getting about 20 minutes a game and I don't see them getting much over 30 minutes per game, so their increased output isn't going to come solely from more PT. The one guy who was among the leaders in points per minute played who can see his numbers drastically increase was Jones believe it or not.

To respond to the point, I don't know either.
