You know what? I would really just love to get back to where we make teams adjust to us and I know it won’t happen overnight. We have players with different skillsets, so our sum will have to be greater than our individual parts or we are going to be a mediocre team.  That’s the potential I’ve been excited about for the season. So we may not be able to throw a 230lb center at you, however we have multiple 210 lb. athletic big guys with huge wingspans, that’s 20 fouls at the 5, let’s press and speed things up so they have to sub their man out.  I also think this kind of a change up would only help MD or BS.    I think we also have interchangeable pieces at every other position (I loved seeing Woody play at the top of the zone) put 6'5 and 6'8 up there for a few minutes a game with KR, not sure if we've done that since the first game.

The young guys don't have to be great at everything, just play ball, play hard and find a way to contribute during their few minutes, it’s not like they just started playing hoops this year.   Besides giving the starters a break, it would build their confidence and let them start growing into some potential.

There’s s room for all of the different skill sets on this team to work off each other and make problems for teams in the long run.    The current path we’re on, we already saw how that will play out last season.   I like the makeup of the team and their potential to be a really good team down the road.  I’m not harping on any individual player, but it’s disappointing watching us do the same thing as last season and expect different results this year.
