We are giving semi major minutes to Doorson, Thiam and Kiss. When Doorson is on the floor the opponent can slack off him unless he is two feet from the basket. He is absolutely no threat to score. How many times does Kiss throw up shots that do not get near the basket? How many times does he dribble trying to create space and then lose his dribble? Yes, he has a shot but not within the context of a game. The same goes for Issa.

The premise behind my thread yesterday
 
Pete's def. not playing well right now, nor is Issa. Comments about Shaq D. above are also accurate. It's a shame because Shaq D. and Pete are two of the nicest players on the team. So genuine and personable. But they need to sit, as does Issa. Gotta play Tez, Ron, Myles and Shaq Carter more. Caleb, too.

Can EO play any three? If so, I wouldn't mind seeing him out there with Myles and Shaq C. With Baker and the one and either Tez or Caleb at the two spot. Or Caleb at one and Baler at two.

Just not sure if EO can defend other B1G threes... and will it expose him to even more foul trouble.
 
As long as we are shooting this poorly we might as well put a big lineup in and try to just dominate inside. Drive throw it up maybe draw a foul or lead to an offensive rebound. We make offense look so hard

Or, shooting as we are, go with Shaquille C and Myles, Montez, Geo, McConnell/Harper. Tell our three guards to get the ball into the lane and put it up on the rim. Shooter, Shaq, and Myles attack glass.
 
Well, guards who aren't scoring are always a problem, but college teams have run effective offenses with post-only big men since the beginning of time
