Probably was talked about yesterday but I didn't feel like talking basketball until today...

Does anyone think that Stansbury will put Phil at the 3 and bench Ravern at some point this year? Ravern was completely non existent yesterday, and his defense has gotten worse as the year has gone on. We need another rebounder on the court, and I think the 1st team needs his energy more than the 2nd team does. Yesterday was disgusting, and I think Phil has proven himself enough that he is more effective on the floor in all areas than Ravern. Anyone think Stansbury would pull the trigger on this? I doubt it, but I think it's worth talking about.

It seemed to me that Phil and, according to Jack, Romero Miller were out there quite a bit more than normal in the 2nd half. Not only Ravern was non existent, but Augustus was a defensive liability. After Kodi did the coast to coast dunk and was charged for the foul, I was glad to see him on the bench.

He isn't physical at all with guys his size, and when he runs he looks like he's got a refrigerator on his back. Apparently Romero Miller had some good minutes. But seriously, Romero needs to be playing the 4, and Phil needs to start at the 3. What the hell is Ravern good for if he can't hit 3's? Phil plays better defense, and he rebounds, and can go to basket better. Romero at least plays within the game more than Kodi, and is a slightly better ball handler.

Augustus is overweight? Now that's funny....personally I just think the kid has a couple of screws loose and probably was the valedictorian of the special class.

But overweight? The guy is the ONLY person on the team that bench press the bar. I guess stansbury has you used to guys that don't weigh over 200 lbs.
