THEY CAN’T STOP YOU NICK KERN

I think our backcourt is going to be awfully good. The frontcourt has all the ingredients, it’s up to Chef Rhoades, et al, to blend, spice and cook it right.

We got a stew cookin'!

We got a Stu cookin'!

I can’t believe you missed such an obvious joke.

Can't wait to see him go off this year!

Of the incoming guys last year, I was most excited by Kern. Nunn did his thing. However, I think Kern will be a good one.

Title of the thread says it all.

That poop is dope. Hope he shows us some more of the flashes we saw last season.

 

[Mr. X]

Yeah, this is pretty bad ass.

quick poll. do we think kern or jackson will get more minutes? (not that theyre necessarily the same position)

The wing position(s) are going to be super competitive.

Jackson 6’5
Kern 6’6
Banks 6’5
Watkins 6’7
Billups 6’7
Shriver 6’6

And that’s with McAllister out.

Of that group I think Jackson has leg up in PT since he can(will?) play some on-ball guard to spell Ace and Nunn. Watkins and Billups will get the most true wing minutes is my guess.

Kern's game reminds me of Curry's game. A lot of slashing to the basket. And like Curry's game in years 1-3, a whole lot of missed shots. I really hope Kern steps up this year and starts to hit his shots. I think he started to come offensively on at the very tail end of this past year. He needs to take a step up this year. We need a slasher but one who can put the ball in the hole.

I was just thinking the same. I think you throw Nunn in there as well as a couple of those guys could slid to the 2 as well. Jackson, Banks, and Kern could be a fit at 2.

We actually have some very good and athletic guys. Fwiw, I think the only definite is Ace at this point. He if his health and attitude hold up he starts all games. (this is not stating that he has an attitude problem or is afoul of any team rule just that things sometimes happen).
