Well it helps that he is actually making shots. He has been in a funk all year until the past 4-5 games.

No he is not. He is 5'11". He played point in high school

and we recruited him to play point. He played point his freshman year, and was more consistent. Brownell switched him to SG, because he wanted Hall as the starter at point.

point and he doesn't drive very well, he's much better on the wing....I don't care what he played in HS, if he was a PG, Brad would have left him there.

He is a PG deal with it, he can drive to the basket...

when he is at PG being defend by players that aren't significantly taller than him. If he was much better at the wing, his shooting would be more consistent. As a freshman at PG, we got the most consistent play out of Roper throughout his three seasons. He distributes the ball much better than Hall.

This offense needs a scorer and someone is always...

Open. Have to be able to nail jumpers or defenses pack it in and wait on a Demarcus Harrison brick/airball or an offensive charge. Hitting jumpers changes everything. Next need is a players and Grantham may be that guy. Go Tigers!

Anybody raining "3's" is going to help the offense.

Roper is obviously capable. He just has to do it consistently.
