If Belo plays this game:
Plummer has gotten rid of our slow starts, no way he comes off the bench. You can play three guards, this is the starting line up, have to have shooters on the floor.
Belo
Trent
Plummer
Coleman
Kofi
Grandison first off bench
There’s not any one lineup that you go: “Holy-crap, that’s it!”
I definitely like a lot of what that combo gives you. I agree that Plummer
has more than earned it.
I can’t even decide who who THE sixth/seventh man should be. Of course, last year it was Belo and it fit like a glove.
Now we’re here…and it isn’t so obvious.
( I see no downside to doubling Luke Goode’a playing time yesterday!)
We would miss DW for a TON of reasons outside the starting 5. The central theme being toughness, toughness, toughness.
Jake is a better passer, gives added height, and even though the purist in me dislikes his shooting form…Jake is 85 percent more likely than DW to hit a 12 foot finesse floater in the lane.
But is Jake gonna pull down the boards DW is…? or make some of those GRIT plays? I dunno? Prob. Not.
