Message: [QUOTE="jordoo, post: 1860730, member: 569"] But bringing him off the bench does not reinforce that at all. I agree it makes sense he deferred last year but the coaches were trying to get him to shoot more last season as well when he had good shots. He was a great team player and a freshman. We were starting our 3 highest scorers so Roberson could start over Lydon plus Lydon was our backup 5 last season. We shall see and its a 1st world problem which is nice to have. I just think people forget that Roberson has only ever been a starter out of necessity. He is an energy/rebounding guy who is a very valuable part of the team but usually those guys are bench players on the better squads. I understand that people aren't going to agree at this point. I am also firmly entrenched in my opinion as my brain simply refuses to process Lydon starting the game on the bench while we have 3 front court players he is better than in the game. I just can't wrap my brain around it. [/QUOTE]
