The radio guys were saying he was a 2 guard in HS and the transition to a 1 is a hell of a challenge.

I think the plan (I could be wrong) at the beginning of the season was to have Mack and DA share the load being the point. It didn't work out that way in the long run.

Ya, DA could benefit from being the off guard - like Tyger did from getting tons of wide open shots his penultimate season. Imo, even w/ no further development, it would be extremely difficult to find a HS Sr. or a portal guy that could come in next season and run the point better than DA. JMO.

A thing that is probably irrelevant given Mick, but last season we occasionally fast breaked off of misses. When Tyger and DA were both on the floor, it was DA that was running the break. Tyger would stay back and be ready to defend if we missed. DA is fast and fast with the ball. But, we rarely run.

Ya, "Baz" is reportedly Mack's nickname. I called him that at the beginning of the season. But, almost no one else did. So, I only call him that by mistake now. Sort of like if I wrote 2023 on a check. :-)
