Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 2834713, member: 716"] I think the personnel changes play into the worst instincts of the coach. Carey's got potential, but we've got a veteran-friendly coach who's got no patience for young guys' turnovers. So he'll play the injured senior over Carey. Hughes is a poor man's Battle. But because Battle's back, Boeheim's chosen to force both of them into the lineup (Hughes out of position). Which bumps into Marek down the line. He's lost his role, he's got no rhythm, but... ...Boeheim has limited respect for the center role. So Marek inexplicably gets minutes there. Where he's totally ineffective and also... ...costs Chukwu and Sidibe much-needed reps, Sidibe because he's spent too much time rehabilitating an injury at the expense of playing ball, Chukwu because he looks like a guy who's forgotten how to play basketball half the time. It's a mess. [/QUOTE]
