Vander to take on Larkin????

I was concerned when I saw 4 question marks in the subject line. I thought Vander and Larkin were going to have a street fight or something.

I left off two additional question marks, which would have signified a duel at 10 paces.

I do agree we can have Blue get in early foul trouble. However, I think putting our best guy on the key to Miami might be our best way to win. I would probably give it an early try and keep close on eye on fouls. He is our chance of stuffing Larkin for long period of times. Possibly mixing it up might be the best plan. No doubt stuffing Larkin is the key tomorrow night.

I always say you let your best players make big plays in big games. Blue might be more valuable on D tomorrow than scoring points. My gut says he shuts him down. As a rule Blue does a good job of voiding stupid fouls and that is probably because of athleticism and technique. He plays D the way it was taught when we were kids.

I'm thinking that once Vander gets the ball, Miami will be on him, so VB should look to make the quick dump off - catching the shift off guard - leading to an open man and an open basket.

I'm more concerned about 3 pt defense and MU's ability to get into the paint and convert.
