Cincinnati without Gates

[samspann1]

Cronin made adjustments, and his team responded.

Will Boeheim do the same? Is he willing to adjust?

I doubt it.

I'll be shocked if we beat Cincy.

If you don't have a big man to play D in the middle, how do you adjust? That was the difference tonight. Cooley had the run of the place. We had no one to stop him.

Pretty simple observation. Shocking that half the board cant get it. JB had nothing to work with. Zero.

The difference is that Cinci was bad before the Gates suspension.

We, on the other hand, have been great with Melo in the middle. Tough to "improve" when without Melo when we had been playing almost perfect with Melo.

Christ.. I shudder at the thought of Gates running amok on Monday

Yeah this is a pretty dumb thread, IMO. Cinci followed up that Xavier game by playing Wright State, Arkansas Pine Bluff, Radford, and Chicago State, OU, and Pitt. So let's not pretend like they played murderous row without Gates.
