He's playing amazing D, but also playing point guard, dribbling and running all over hell. Maybe Stevie should play point, and we let Kam go back to playing with spacing, catching an occasional breather on the perimeter then chucking on rested legs, and slashing opportunistically Right now, he's trying to do both his job and Kolek's at the same time. Difficult to sustain given the level of competition.

This is where Sean Jones would've helped, alas.

Quote from: DoctorV on January 18, 2025, 10:31:33 PMGood post, I agree.

It was easy for him to do against softer competition, but he's hit some tough sledding and he doesn't have the flow/glide/smoothness or efficiency that he had, plus the outside shot doesn't look the same as it did, hence the misses.

Shaka might have to try to do what he did with Kolek last year, where he took him off the ball for a while by design.
Maybe he's been trying that by forcing Tre, not working so far, but I think he needs to figure something out to keep Kam more fresh and "disguised" off the ball instead of always in the heart of the action

WI, Maryland, Purdue, Iowa St are "soft" competition?

The team just played 3 games in 2 weeks - plenty of time for rest/recover.

And if Kam had in-game fatigue problems, it would have been seen in non-con as well.

Tldr - I don't buy kams struggles as anything related to fatigue

Kam has torched most of these BE teams the past 2 years (averaging 28 against Xavier in the past 3 meetings prior to yesterday for example). Their pride is being challenged ("how many more times are we going to let him spin left?") and they are making the necessary adjustments, so hat tip to them. Just hope there's not too much more hat tipping the rest of the way.

One thing I'm curious about is what is the average time on the shot clock when Kam shoots this year? I'm guessing it's much later this year than in past years. I'd like to see us find ways to get him in attack mode earlier in the possession.
