[QUOTE="altenberger22, post: 1569714, member: 747157"] With Grandison re-emerging, our rotation is starting to take shape. I like it so much more when we have good balance. Ayo and Kofi need to score every game, peppered with 2-3 different contributors each game from the remainder of the roster. ALSO, I don't like the ball in Ayo's hands 100% of the time --- (i.e. like down the stretch vs. Mizzou and Rutgers). I like it best when everybody touches the ball in a possession. Rutgers was the epitome of this in the 2nd half of their 91-88 victory. I'm still comfortable with our current starters, with both Curbelo and Giorgi dependably off the bench early. Grandison is providing some outstanding minutes as our 8th man, and can absolutely handle more PT, as required. He's surprisingly strong on the boards. Hawkins will ultimately be a really big contributor (beginning next season) and is a serviceable 9th man. [/QUOTE]
