I'm ok with our current starting 5. Just need to go to basically a 7 man rotation. With our 8 guy playing 5-8 minutes.

I've never understood why coaches insist on playing so many players. You can easily play a 7-player rotation and give plenty of rest to your starters. Why play your 8th or 9th best player if you can. For instance today, we played 8 players. Holman played 12 minutes and contributed nothing. Split his minutes between Perry and Woodard and we might have won the game, and neither of them would have still played more than 30 minutes.

It’s probably right, but at this point you can’t bench nick. Next year Woodard will be starting...he gives is desperately needed length and energy. He’s got a future in the NBA imo.

I agree. And it does seem obvious. I wasn’t sure if you were one of those who seems to believe he’s a big man. He’ll need to improve the shooting (~25% from 3) but he has time. Regardless, really like the hustle and intangibles he gives us while he’s here.

Ado is a straight up liability, that dude doesn't need to see the court unless we are in a position that we absolutely need him. Feazell can give Perry rest. Ado hasn't played the game very long so he's still very much learning.

Lolz Ado is fifty times the defensive player Feazell is.

If he doesn’t play more, he probably will transfer. I’m sure he sits on the bench most of the game like what the 17 whole Holman and Ado trot out there looking like college students hopping at the Sanderson.

I see a path to this as well...

And if we win our next 5... I see a path to 7-1.

It's right in front of our guys. They just have to go get it.
