Jon Rothstein - Golden could be best PG in the SEC

If he is going to be the best in the SEC this year, he will get a challenge from Ryan Harrow. Kid is real good and plays in a PG friendly offense.

Don't know that he'll be the best, but I expect top 3.

I'm thinking top 3-5. It will depend on how you define the rankings. Ideally, Golden will up his assists and lower his scoring. To me, this would indicate that he is working the ball to our playmakers in the post, which should be our bread and butter. I think CCM wants him to create his own scoring opportunities as well, but getting the ball in the paint and creating foul trouble for other teams should be our goal.

1. No one in that thread was proclaiming Trae was a future NBA baller.

2. Name 3 better SEC PGs than Golden from last season.

I didn't say anyone was, I was making a point.

There were 8 guards on the All SEC teams last year, 4 of which were 6-2 and under. Golden wasn't one of them.

I was wondering why he wasn't getting any love like this. Trae improved mightily over last season and now he's had a full offseason to continue that growth... Watch out.

On another note Phil Pressey is over rated. Marcus Denman, Kim English, and Ricardo Ratliff are was made them go last season and all three are gone. I expect Mizzou to struggle next season, at least compared to their expectations.

no, Denmon and English were 2 great players but Phil was the reason for their success on offense. Kim has said this much many times on our pay site. (He is a poster there now). His slashing ability pulled the defense in towards him and many of our perimeter shots were nearly wide open. Same with Ricardo. He had great hands but MANY of his shots were very close to the basket and MOST wide open, or with the defender out of position. That is what he does. He will be an All-American this year and be gone. Here is an example.
