    What gives you the impression that Reed will be playing the 3?

      IMO the only "true" positions this team has is a 1 and 2. Telly and Daum are hybrids to me. Much like the women's team, this men's team is full of guys that can play on the perimeter as well as with their backs to the basket.

        I think he's hoping Reid can play more of the 3 vs the 4 he was more or less forced to play last year.

          I don't see anyone else on the team who's better set to be the 4 than Telly, especially given that you need Theisen as a backup to Daum and ***somebody*** to back up Telly. Severyn? One of the freshmen?

            Yes, and I was wondering why he was hoping that. It's not going to happen.

              Exactly.

                He's played the four every year he's been here. He's a stretch 4 at this point. No one else is taking the four spot.

                  I'd mostly agree with this, though I'd say the two "true" positions on offense is the 1 and the "post" (basically a 4 that is either on the block or setting ball/back screens near the top of the key). The other positions in the offensive sets are pretty interchangeable.

                  In terms of Telly, you can call his position what you want on offense, but on defense he is going to be guarding the opposing team's 4, which he has been doing his entire career and that's not likely to change unless he's on the floor with both Daum and Theisen at the same time, which isn't likely to happen often. My guess is that when we do see Daum and Theisen together on the court it will be when Telly is getting a rest.

                  If you think nobody cares about you, try missing a couple of payments.
