Forget the failed and 1.

He's giving up far too many offensive rebounds and second chances to a second string big man.
 
Completely agree. He's not doing anything out there tonight. JB's stubbornness may get the better of us tonight.
 
BMK has 1 rebound.

I'm done.
 
The final four was last year.

DC and Xmas improved and are stepping up NOW. BMK is not, or at least not nearly as much.

NOW...as in...it's the 5th game of the season. Chillax.

We think about the present, not the past, not the future.

We are a playing a game right now.

The other 2 centers give us the best chance to win now.

Dude stop. The kid plays his ass off. One bad game and we piss on him? If rak and dc played with half the effort they would be all world

We can't play favorites. He's trying hard, everyone is. Coleman and Xmas are too. If you earn minutes, you earn minutes. Again, I'm talking about this game, not this season.

I have no problem with him in there. He is also our best big man ft shooter

I don't think he's taken one field goal attempt. He's a non factor offensively.

He was put in there because of his defense and rebounding. Right now, against Minnesota, Coleman is playing better defense, and Rak and coleman are both rebounding better.

Yeah, I thought he was fairly bad tonight, but he's an important cog in the machine. He's played really well till tonight - and all our bigs are capable of a night like that.
 
The issue with Keita is he is not a good rebounder, not saying Rak or Coleman are setting the world on fire grabbing boards but Keita really struggles to board against decent teams or above. We needed Rak in there or DC at that point.

Well we won. Its how jb coaches. He goes with guys he trusts. Been watching it for 35 years
 
Keita played alright in the second half, in the first half they had no guy baseline and rak and dajuan won't be backed down as easily have stronger hands and we don't need keita to extend when they have no baseline cutter, rak and dajuan can. Agree Dajuan should have got back in late though when their good big was out there.

I love BMK. He is a leader on this team. He clearly works his ass off. The fact of the matter was tonight Coleman should have gotten more time. Tonight, not this season, BMK hurt more than he did good in my opinion.

I trust Keita in March and in close conference games. But Coleman needed to be in tonight. He needs to be rewarded, as Keita has been. He also needs experience to draw from and improve from.
 
He has had 2 rough games in a row. But as we saw last year in the Tournament, he is very capable of playing great de.

Consistency is what coleman needs to show. If he does then he will be in there. I know ft shooting factored in and that was a big reason why he wasnt in there at the end.

I agree. I just think he needs more time to show consistency or inconsistency. Oh well, a wins a wins a win.

Um. Yea he was our best big man and pulled our ass out of the fire the last 10 games last year. Teams would kill to have that as our third center

He was our third center last year? News to me.
