Spot on. If you work it out we tipped off 3 games in the span of 43 hours. Desperately needed fresh legs for interior D and rebounding. Actually thought AO looked pretty good Friday, quickly gassed on Saturday and completely shot yesterday. Mookie stepped in to plug the gap Saturday but he was shot yesterday as well. As much as the 3 and D approach dominates you need a stopper down low and ypou need to control your defensive boards. Blame the zone if you will but those guys couldn't get off their feet yesterday. McCullough would have been a big asset and I agree with IM's post that Roberson would be a good fit as well. This certainly has been an event for reclamation projects!

Outside of that I expect Devo and Triche to be out there for at least a couple more years. Think Andrew White and BJ will be great additions going forward. And wouldn't be surprised to see Tyus Battle become a mainstay. Beyond Syracuse grads I'd keep Tyler Cavanaugh on the back burner too as a poor man's Lydon.

Can't imagine how a 7 or 8 man roster can compete in this compressed schedule format. We had 9 and could have used 12 but agree a bit with JB. Blackwell's frequent substitutions seem more designed to balance minutes than to drive the flow of the game.
