Message: [QUOTE="Zelda Zonk, post: 2063262, member: 966"] One of the best things JB did in aught three was to sit Carmelo on a few occasions when he got too big for his britches. Kentucky and Duke — both seem like cases where you have so much talent that you end up just mixing the players too much and balancing minutes too much. Players who are only there for the one year don't get enough time to develop as collegians and in that system. Like with us this year, we are seeing development in a few players after they became 'established' as the hard starters. I thought battle, for example, was going to need the summer to develop. He came on like a ton a bricks in the last couple of weeks. Kentucky needs to pick a five and get them to gel and have responsibility, and not be able to think 'the next guy can do it.' [/QUOTE]
