Oso planning to go pro
Needing a stop in the last minute, I wantStevie, Chase, Sean, Omax, and Oso. I can see TK in place of either of the frosh. As much for stability and presence of mind.Needing a basket in the last 30 seconds is tougher for me.TK, Kam, Oso, Joplin, and whoever has been playing the best up to that point.
I think Shaka is trying to figure this out as well. In both Purdue and MSU games, cases could be made for staying with OMax and TK too long……but I think your lineups will prove true.Jop can nail the three or lose his man on the inbound.Omax can get the off board/steal and then dribble off his leg.TK can have 10 assists and then attempt an interior bounce pass that has the potential to be touched by 3 defenders.The wildcard is Gold. Needs to get up to speed sooner than later or we will be hurting when Oso gets a foul 30’ from the basket.
Where does our team go to get a bucket in a tight game under 5 mins? To this point I honestly have no clue.
Oso or Kolek. Then they create the shot.
MU for sure needs to take Mitchell off the court. He gets more wide open shots then anybody, to bad he can not shot consistently. His D is outstanding, but end of game for O, out.
I essentially asked this in the game thread. I think Shaka has to consider playing Ross more because if Stevie and O-Max can't make wide open shots their defense can't offset this problem for 30+ mins imo.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
Stevie: 35% from 3O-Max: 31.2% from 3Ross: 26.7% from 3Why are we assuming that Ross will make more wide open twos than two guys shooting better than he is?
Brew, good teams are going to do what they can to eliminate Kolek as a passer. I have no problem giving Oso the ball more in the paint but against power players I think he could struggle.
