[QUOTE="breadman, post: 1175973, member: 11051"] Considering the dire situation this team is in due to injuries that have most significantly leaving this team without a presence in the middle, I would change one thing. That one thing would be MM. Either: 1. MM looking at himself in the mirror and realizing this is his time. Then going to Groce's office and telling him that he wants to be the man in the middle; or 2. Groce going to MM and telling him that the team will be riding his shoulders for the near term and he needs to fill bigger shoes with more playing time, better defense, better passing, etc. That MM has no choice. Then, alter the substitution pattern to fit this one big change. It kills me to see MM on and off the floor as if there is someone better that takes his place. There ain't no one. So, IMHO, ride this guy till the cows come home. It's only temporary anyway, and it just might connect some dots for MM with the extended playing time and added responsibility. Hey, it could happen!
