Maybe, but I think it's less important this season

In the previous off seasons, the gameplan was centered around building a team around a 4 that would have the ball in their hands all the time. Injuries exposed that in the worst way.

This season, there's a lot of capable guards and there's more focus on playing faster. I think while having an improvement over Puryear is important, this season will come down to how good the core of Smith^2, Pinson and Watson are.

Puryear vs. Brown/Jackson - itznotwillis MU - 8/28 08:58:47
     Comes down to PG play - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 10:39:48
          Dru alone will make pg play better, - longtimereader MU - 8/28 15:13:35
          Pickett is 6'5" 225 now (nm) - Uncle John MU - 8/28 10:58:01
               I noticed that and thought that good for a 4 guard lineup - longtimereader MU - 8/28 15:04:07
                    Before he hurt his back Pickett was shooting 38% on 3’s - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 16:08:47
                         Actually it was less than that at that point - longtimereader MU - 8/28 17:03:27
                              Sports reference must be wrong then - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 17:08:24
                                   going into that game - longtimereader MU - 8/28 19:23:39
                                        That was the second Arkansas game - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 20:05:54
                                             That is correct - longtimereader MU - 8/28 21:10:23
                                                  He’s got an ugly shot - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 21:17:55
               Hopefully his body holds up better - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 11:24:40
          Pinson and Smith will both be terrific I have a feeling - raskolnikov MU - 8/28 10:49:40
               Pinson will be better, but his best ball will be his Jr & Sr - Diamond Dave MU - 8/28 14:00:15
                    I don’t know if Jackson will really be better than - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 14:16:29
                         That's exactly what I'd expect from Jackson this year - longtimereader MU - 8/28 15:19:08
                         Agree and I meant by the end of the season, he'll be a - Diamond Dave MU - 8/28 14:18:42
               Beats me, I've never seen Jackson play (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 11:20:10
               I think Jackson will have some success, but I also think - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/28 11:03:26
                    And that is the great thing about having classes that return - raskolnikov MU - 8/28 11:07:42
                         You're exactly right. Some are critical of CM on here, - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/28 20:12:01
                              almost every rebuild takes 3-4 years - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 20:24:42
          2012-13 had Phil Pressey so it was far from subpar or - tgr MU - 8/28 10:48:52
               Pressey was a hot mess in '13. He'd make some plays and - alwaysright MU - 8/28 11:52:07
                    Yet we still won 23 games and made the tourney while he lead - tgr MU - 8/28 12:33:20
                         Ok. I didn’t call him subpar. He was a mess. - alwaysright MU - 8/28 15:20:01
                         That team was ranked #7 in the nation, and finished the year - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 12:39:39
                              that team still had some really big holes - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 14:29:56
                                   RE: that team still had some really big holes - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 14:57:14
               He was definately a significant reason that team under - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 11:18:58
                    You're such an idiot. He was a first team all-SEC that year - tgr MU - 8/28 11:22:37
                         I disagree, and stand behind that position. (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 11:24:06
                    That was because he didn’t have Dixon - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 11:21:50
                         So we got shaky pg play from one guy, and the other - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 11:23:36
                              Flip was still good that year - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 11:26:43
                                   That team would have had a much better chance for more - sprintcar STL - 8/28 11:32:32
                                   I disagree with that - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 11:30:52
                                        His defense wasn’t good his first 2 years - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 11:34:12
                                             that isn't what I mean. The post is lost now, but at one - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 12:37:23
          Both Kash and Geist were better than Shamburger - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 10:41:45
               Neither of them were pgs - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 10:42:32
                    Both played PG, so they were - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 10:47:33
                         That is different than what I'm saying though - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 11:16:58
                              that isn't true at all. just b/c someone isn't a "pg" does - TigerA MU - 8/28 11:19:45
                                   It means you are playing without a pg, which - FIJItiger MU - 8/28 11:22:06
                                        RE: It means you are playing without a pg, which - MUKdC MU - 8/28 15:38:26
                                        Just because someone is vastly better at 1 position - Mizzmi27 MU - 8/28 15:06:06
                                        so dumb - TigerA MU - 8/28 11:26:24
     Puryear took less than 2 3’s per game - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 10:03:58
          It would be interesting to know how many shots Puryear - MU-TULSA MU - 8/28 10:14:41
          He shouldn't have had a license to shoot any(nm) - itznotwillis MU - 8/28 10:06:20
               i Thought he should have shot it more - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 10:25:17
                    There was a reason he was always open behind the arc - itznotwillis MU - 8/28 11:05:06
     People don't want to admit it but the season depends on SEC - alstl MU - 8/28 09:36:21
          Tilmon is a game changer - o'lineydisciple MU - 8/28 11:12:32
          Cuonzo doesn't do that. He's been clear that he simply won't - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/28 10:04:13
               Tilmon was obviously being targeted - not debatable - the - alstl MU - 8/28 16:00:19
               Sometimes you have to have your player's back - Tiger Tim MU - 8/28 12:20:47
               While I respect Cuonzo for doing what he does on the - Da_Haze KC - 8/28 10:23:31
                    he works the refs non stop - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/28 10:26:17
                         Right. He talks to them a lot more than people realize. He - sprintcar STL - 8/28 10:28:48
                              And it resulted in favorable calls - Domino MU - 8/28 10:37:47
          they "target" him b/c he fouls a lot. he has earned - TigerA MU - 8/28 09:39:43
               He had that reputation due to his freshman year - Da_Haze KC - 8/28 09:53:52
               And opposing teams have keyed in on ways to push him - Domino MU - 8/28 09:44:58
                    i agree with this all(nm) - TigerA MU - 8/28 10:29:53
     Maybe, but I think it's less important this season - Domino MU - 8/28 09:03:09
