[QUOTE="SescIllini, post: 1261543, member: 603681"] I think there are some blanket statements made about our players and team that aren't totally accurate. Thorne is a good player, but just like everything else it depends on match-ups. Quick leaping big men which Indiana, FSU, and WVU had give us problems. Kipper, TJL, and DJW need more minutes, especially against quicker teams. DJW didn't show much today but he had tools to create mismatches, like Kipper they both need more minutes to develop and exploit them. Where do the minutes come from? TJL needs to get Tate's minutes and Kipper and DJW need minutes from reducing minutes from realigning minutes from the others in the rotation. Depending on the match-ups we can possibly go without a true center but go bigger at the 1-3 positions. I think we need to see Hill at the SG or possibly PG at times. We give up too much by having the combination of Tate, Abrams, and JCL at the guard positions. Just for once can we go with Hill, Kipper, DJW, Black, and JCL(or Abrams or TJL). Someone mentioned playing players with high motors, I agree. Kipper, Hill, TJL, and Black seem to go hard all the time. [/QUOTE]
