I heard T2 mention about Sheed coming back as well. Delighted. If he and Obekpa return it casts an entirely different light on next year.

I think if Chris stays our chances with Diallo skyrocket.

Paultzman, you are almost always right about stuff, unlike many others on this board, but I don't think you have this right.

Having solid PG is the most important factor.

I agree about the PG, but we have a shot Sheed stays and in the hunt for others.  Reading beteween the lines i think it's fair to say a slight lean to CO staying but it's up in the air and unknowable at this point.

No one outside of Sheed's camp thinks he is ready to or should leave.

I agree, based on what has been reported, that a pg is crucial to Diallo's recruitment.  At the same time, his game seems to project to a 4 in college and it would help tremendously if Obekpa is here to play the 5.

Would help him tremendously, but not the crucial factor in getting Diallo.

I can't help but wonder if Kris Dunn is what turned the light on for Sheed.

If you asked me last year who had a brighter future I would have said Sheed. Dunn was struggling. Injuries obviously a factor. But both players coming in at same time and Sheed was playing better even with all his flaws we knew of.

Now this year Dunn is POY in the BE in my opinion and maybe Sheed sees that he can return next year and do the same.

I actually trust him shooting a 3 more than Dee at this point. And watching the Marquette game for the first time I said to myself I really want him back next year. It looks like he has finally bought in and things are clicking.

Totally agree. That is what is in your mind and my mind let's just hope it is what is in Sheed's mind.

His shooting has improved a lot since he got here.  Has a great stroke.

Nice post Moose. Do you like Sheed's upside more than Daniel Murphy? :)

I) Obekpa staying should only have a positive effect on Diallo.  Diallo has carte blance at the PF spot which is exactly what he should want at the college level.  Hed start from day one and not be shoved in as a center.

2) Rysheed has no business leaving after this season.  He needs one season to improve his handle and show he's not a head case.  He can garner post-season accolades with a full season the way he's playing now.  He won't be a high draft pick because he made his bed by acting up early and causing team strife.  It hurt his stock without s doubt.  He needs a tighter handle and to show he has matured and is a leader.

3) Obekpa isn't near draftable right now with little low post defense, and no offensive game.  He's not a center in the NBA, so he has a ton of work to do on offense, gaining weight and on low post d to show he can actually play in the NBA.
