Hope it means we leave minor alone and donāt double Wakeās post player. Also letās us do Reece + Minor PnR
I think the hopeful interpretation is that Tony reduced some of the help defense stuff which then makes Minor more playable.
If we do go Dunn/Groves/Minor my guess is the hedges will still be there, but my hope is the post double goes away and Tony trusts Minor enough to be serviceable in iso coverage. I also want this to mean that Dunn will be able to defend more on the wing and switch off of screens, would benefit us immensely if thatās the case.
@chavlicek15 the day of reckoningā¦ the redux?
Awww man why do I have hope again. Hope is the worst
Why would starting a guy at this point who couldnāt crack the rotation against buy teams give you any hope?
I was going to say. Sounds pretty hopeful around here ā¦
Because he wasnāt cracking the rotations due to all the defensive help stuff that is already hard to pick up for a guy transitioning from zone to man, let alone packline.
And hoping that also correlates into less doubling/hedging that generates wide open 3s for Wake Forest.
Im hopeful not because of Minor as an individual but because it signifies a scheme and philosophy shake up that suddenly makes Minor more playable. And also because Im of the mindset if we hadnāt kept doubling and hedging and running around like a chicken with itās head cut off, we could have actually beaten NC State instead of crumbling early and then just going through the motions.
Play to Reece and Dunnās individual strengths. Prevent momentum killing and psychological scarring 3 pointers. Let their big score 30 pts 20 rebounds
Weāre going to play zone today arenāt we
Yes. We will see it I think. #bringyourweldinggoggles

Isnāt this what Tonyās pops recommend?
Reece Harris IMac Dunn Blake
Red knowsā¦
Watching Blue Cain, Demary, and JAR just cook Tennessee is certainly a good morale booster for Virginia fans
Yeah JAR looks good. Really stuck it out and it paid off for him. I think heās def matured over the last few years.
I know Tony watched him numerous times and could never pull the trigger, which is fineā¦. But man he really feels like heād be a good fit.
(Iām more than happy with Bliss)
Louisville beat Miami. Georgia beating Tennessee. LETS BEAT WAKE FOREST (or lose really early so I can go back to fantasizing about portal additions)
You are getting an early 2H collapse and you will like it.
