Easiest no brainer way to make this suck less - play Betsey

[Millhouse]

He is shooting 44% from three

Why is he playing 17 min a game in conference

Anthony can't rebound, can't shoot, can't defend. When you're this terrible, it shouldn't be hard to get Betsey more minutes.

Betsey's defense is not very good either to be fair. Strangely, he tends to shoot well in the second half after starting 0 of whatever in the first half. But he has improved a lot since the beginning of the yera. He does rebound and seems to be trying.

Would require moving Kingz to shooting guard.

Would love that, but it’s so late in the year that it is relatively pointless (shrink the rotation by one player and get more minutes for Betsey and S. White - might have been worth a try).

Next coach will use a more analytical approach.

Yes but compared to what?
Compared to players on his teams yes. Compared to anyone else eating his minutes?

Even better!!

That's fine, IMO.

Playing Betsey more means somebody would have to sit.

Kyle? Hell no.
Freeman? Best overall potential on team, but maybe.
Kingz? Nah -- too important as a shooter / scorer.
JJ? Here you go.

JJ can still start, but I think his minutes go down to like 15 mpg. When he's out, Kingz shifts to the 2 and Betsey plays the 3.

That's the way to get more balanced shooting on the floor, and removing another ball stopper on offense.

Downside: the ball handling as a group goes way down.

Anthony and starling are really bad and kill them. George is too but what can you do. It would be addition by addition and addition by subtraction

Addition by subtrition? Addaction?

Lol appreciate the twist that you went to Kiyan as the thing plaguing us.

It would be like moving deck chairs on the Titanic. The ship is going down.

PS Betsey's defense is much too charitable.
