[QUOTE="LouHenson, post: 1570516, member: 746834"] I would start Grand, not because I think he playing great but he significantly could help against the Ron Harper’s of the BIG. I think Curbello coming off the bench is fine (he plays starter minutes anyways). His defense is improving the tip off the backboard was huge. So back to Miller. Miller and Curbello are not really competing for the same “starting” position. Curbello is really Frazier’s backup. At this point Miller would be better suited coming off the bench and playing when Curbello is in the game. Andre will get him open looks and that is what he needs at this point. He is forcing shots, getting beat on defense and is actually in the way on may offensive sets when the “starters” are in. Granderson (just as Bardo said) is really a key for Illinois they don’t have another player (shy Hawkins - and he is a fresh) like him. I think him starting and Miller coming off the bench for now would pay dividends down the road. [/QUOTE]
