Edwards and Frank need to play. If Sid is healthy we can get away with one of them playing but we are not competitive against physical teams with Marek at the 5.
Im a big fan of Marek on the offensive end of the floor and as a 3 or 4 on D.
Using him at the 5 has morphed from emergency use to fulltime which isn't a winning decision and more importantly isnt necessary. Edwards and Frank are better options defensively against physical teams.
Personally i wish JB would try a few different combinations and go big at times. Edwards has great hands and is extremely coordinated for a big. Marek has 3 skills and Q is tough on the boards. 
Edwards 5
Q 4
Marek 3
Buddy2
Kadary 1

Would be our most physical and biggest team. This is a combo id like to see against physical teams especially when we have a lead late. 
Frank is a talented player. According to the coaches he is the most athletic 5 we have had in years. Lets hope he gets some run before he transfers. 
As to Sid he has been hampered by injuries his entire career. Hopefully he can return but history doesn't bode well for being able to count on it. 
Bottom line is Marek simply isnt good enough at the 5 to warrant Edwards and Frank not playing and we cant count on Sid staying healthy. Play the kids.
