Not saying he isnt the better choice, but he has 4 turnovers in about 15 minutes so far. He isnt really a high post center like we run through. And his defense isnt great. He's also missed a bunch of open cutters. Against Marist, he took zero shots!

Again, its not like Walz doesn't have his issues too, but I am not so sure how obvious it is just cuse Beagle made a few buckets tonight!
Agreed. Beagle is not all A10 by any means (as I said not perfect). But I do think it’s clear he is better than Walz to most who have watched the games.

Side note, hope Walz is ok. Concussions are scary

Yeah agreed. His ball handling leaves a lot to be desired right now and there was at least 1 or 2 obvious cutters he missed and another he tried that he shouldn’t. That said we may need him because looking to score.

Buckle up everyone, this is going to be a long season.

I think what these last 2 games have shown us is that this team does better when there is an alpha (particularly a PG) on the team who is the go-to scorer. We think of our best teams who had King, Gilly, Kendall Anthony, Kevin Anderson, all were dynamic scoring PGs. We were touting balanced scoring as a positive, but it can be a detractor if no one is willing to be “the guy” and will this team to a win, and instead our offense plan is to pass the ball aimlessly hoping something will happen.

Also, didn’t realize Kevin Smith is an assistant coach for Charlotte. I’m sure it hurts him a bit watching us play like this, even though he was on the other side tonight.

Why isn’t Beagle starting? He’s not perfect but he’s played better than Walz in all 3 games
