Message: [QUOTE="OCESIP, post: 4531580, member: 8702"] After the non conference debacles it was apparent that this was a development year, especially with the huge number of first year players. I can live with JB using this season to develop something that works and finding who performs best in different situations. The fact that he's willing to give 9 players meaningful minutes is certainly a change in philosophy, even if it's dictated by the play on the court. I really like the fact that there seems to be more effort on the defensive end. Offensively, if the 4 forwards can find a consistent, dependable role game in and game out, Mintz can be an effective facilitator rather than a primary scorer. Without a perimeter game he is pretty limited right now. The elephant in the room in today's era is who stays, who leaves, and what the portal might offer. [/QUOTE]
