Don’t even know even we’re missing so it’s hard to be too mad, but that stinks

Well they all weigh about 163 pounds and Linder runs them like they are greyhound dogs every single practice.SDPokeFan said:
I was excited to see what Walters could do at this level. Some guys just have an uncanny knack for scoring the basketball, and I think Walters has it. Sure wish he could have had the non-conference portion of the season to develop some chemistry with his teammates and let Linder iron out his rotations.
I think this mean Akuel Kot will be doing a lot of scoring for Wyoming this year. With this injury, I could see Kot averaging 20+ points per game - just not sure how efficient of a scorer he is.
I still have no clue about what to expect out of this coming season, but my curiosity has been dampened a little bit with the injury to Walters. I think Walters is a sleeper that could surprise a lot of people in the conference.

Interesting. They seem like very different players. In his high school videos, Manyawu looked very raw, especially on the offensive side of the court. I think he averaged somewhere around 7 points per game in high school. I'm not sure he can replace the scoring that Walters would have delivered at that spot. I do think Manyawu is a better rebounder and defender though.

No offense to Maldonado (a Cowboy great), but is anyone else excited to see a team without him on it? He couldn't shoot a lot of the time.

I'm excited because we have zero idea what this team will look like. Last year we knew that Maldonado could carry the team most of the time when needed. Who is the guy this year? Griffin? Kot? Wenzel? Powell? The only person that knows the answer to that right now is Linder.

Maldo couldn't carry anything, again, no offense to him. He never was able to be the top dog on a good team. Anyway, I think Walters was supposed to be "the guy" this year, so it really sucks he got injured.WYO1016 said:

We saw what last years team was without Maldo. It was terrible.

Was terrible with him too
Have to agree with Lander here...Maldo was most successful when he had a second star player (Ike) playing with him. That being said, he did seem to regress his last year as well. I'm not sure if it was complacency or if the previous year's success got to his head, but there was a big step backwards his last year. Way more turnovers and far less efficiency as a scorer.
Now that I really think about it, so many thing went wrong last year that it is almost comical. I just don't see how this year could be any worse. I guess we are about to find out.
