Jamal is so smooth. I trust him with the ball at all times, more than all others.

It says a lot about how well he has played that no one is overly focused on his poor shooting numbers. I am confident that will improve sooner than later, but he is doing so many o'er things that he still helps a ton even without scoring. It was nice to see him calmly sink two free throws Saturday when so many other guys were having poor nights at the line.

Agree 100%

Won't be long till his shots start falling, although 40% from 3 isn't too bad

We are 9-1, playing pretty well and you guys are already discussing next year's lineup. Conference season hasn't even started yet

Coaches tend to plan.

You guys are tough

Jamal is usually a calming force when he enters the game. He obviously has a high baketball IQ. He knows how to attack a zone defense with the ball in his hands, and his nose for the ball and active hands are like watching a clinic when he’s the one on defense. It’s also interesting to note that his 28 assists are just two shy of our starting PG.

Not bad for a freshman!

I think Bienienmy will start next year and maybe by the end of this season.

You're drawing a conclusion that's not there

I wouldn't count Bienemy out. The kid has special athleticism/length at the position, a high basketball IQ, and plays his tail off every possession he's out there. He's not a scorer yet, but he's got some of the 'it' factor that makes a good player special. Give him an offseason to refine his offensive game a little, and I think Kruger will be hard pressed to keep him off the floor.
