If Emmitt Williams stayed, how deep of a run does this team make?

Could definitely use him rebounding the ball and just his overall energy on both ends of the court.
I think he would have easily gotten us 2 more Ws in this shortened season and makes us a legit top 8 team in the country going into next week’s big dance.
**Currently playing in the G League, and I really hope he makes it to the NBA and get thats that bread he left for

This team with Bigby-Williams. Sign me up.

This team would be much better just by his sheer will and determination but you still don’t know. The NCAA tournament is all about matchups. This team can make a run if they catch the matchups right.
Emmit is going to have to learn to be a shooter if he wants to make it in the NBA. If he can do that then he can be a role player somewhere. Develop that midrange jumper like Big Baby Davis did.

I doubt we lose our 1st game regardless. If emmitt stayed then he would have got us off that 8 seed which is where we need to be.

This team exactly as it is assembled this year can definitely win two ncaa tourney games. Two things they need to do. Keep the rebound stat close to even (it's a bonus if we win this stat) and shoot 40+ % from 3. So 10 for 25 or better.
Best case for 3 point shooting is that we are efficient in the half court and getting good open looks based on our ball movement and scoring easy 2's. When we do that we can easily shoot that 40% or better.

Williams brings not only athletic ability but also leadership that this team is lacking. Smart when he wants to does show that leadership and effort but not consistently. Williams has that motor that doesn’t quit that raises his teammates.

Offensive rebounding used to be a top 2-3 hallmark of Wade’s teams, having Emmitt would bring that back and balance us out.
BTW: Leblanc should be starting over Hyatt and Wilkinson

Take away the selfish, street ball attitude, and this current team would easily be 20-4 to 18-6 and looking at around a 4-6 seed in the tourney.

What you really mean is take away a newer isolation heavy brand of basketball.
That brand of basketball has put will wades teams in the top 10 overall offensive teams in the country the last three years.
So, if we take away the thing that Will Wade's teams do best, we would be better?
Got it.

What you really mean is, we don't have to play defense.
Show me in my post where I said iso offense is the achilles heel of Wade's teams.

Streetball (or street basketball) is a variation of basketball, typically played on outdoor courts and featuring significantly less formal structure and enforcement of the game's rules. As such, its format is more conducive to allowing players to publicly showcase their own individual skills.

I think Wade is kind of forced to keep him and Days separate because of Days constant foul trouble.

Sure, by streetball I mean LSU is 221st in assists and 280th in scoring defense. (out of 340 teams)
Imagine our players, who can drive the ball at will, actually kicking the ball out to a wide open shooter instead of forcing a lob shot with multiple defenders in the lane. Or imagine if we had any effort on the defensive end.
For the record, I like Will Wade. It's blatantly obvious that he has a few areas of concern with his teams though (see above). He def knows how to recruit athletes though, which a lot of times can mask team deficiencies.

I'm assuming that you are referring to iso centric offense as "selfish streetball".
I would love nothing more than to be the best defensive team in the country. Unfortunately, we are not that, so we have to score, which we can do with any team in the country.
