Not sure how much of a small forward he really is but would love to have him.
Doesn't need to be a SF. We will run a 3 guard lineup. A prototypical SF is not necessary.
But would be nice to not have to run the 3 guard offense which I believe has been driven more by limited offensive skills in the front line than having 3 very good guards...If we had a good frontline, I'd prefer to go 2 guard...
Many college teams go 3 guard. You don't need a prototypical SF in college ball like you do in the NBA. We have three, possibly even 4 above average guards on our roster. Dlo, Jordan, Branch, and Greene (Cue the Greene is not above average posts). Not to mention, I could see Balamou getting PT this season.
If we had a stud SF I would agree with you and say we should run a 2 guard lineup, but we don't, and Lawrence is a PF. If we get him, I don't think there will ever be a time he's playing at the 3. We simply don't have enough big men.
