Again co-POG’s
(1st half) Lanier with 30 points 5 boards
(2nd half) ZZZ 16 points 7 assists

Honorable mention to Gainey with 14-3-3

Huge road win to keep us alive for the coveted 1seed!

👍 Sorry, looked and didn't see this thread. We made same thread exact same time. Maybe mods can merge mine into a post with yours.

I can go with co- POG's

I think Gainey is the most underrated player on this team. He is basically our entire bench. In games where Gainey has scored 9 or more points (slightly below his average) , we are undefeated. To be fair in games where Lanier scores 18 or more we are also undefeated (slightly above his average).

Needs to be starting ( would definitely help with the cold starts) but it's sure nice to see him come in and make plays. Guy should be commended for accepting the role off the bench this year.

That’s definitely a take. Not one a HOF coach or many others would agree with but hard to argue someone’s opinion.

For sure just my opinion but I think it's hard to argue against if we have cold starts offensively come tournament time it probably doesn't end well for us. Refs tend to call games tighter in the NCAAT so relying on our defense to keep us in games is only going to get harder. We ice cold in the beginning of a game and the other team is hot we probably never come back.

If it were a sure fix to cold starts I’d be rowing that boat with you. As it is, he rarely makes his first shot… or second. Can’t prove that with a link for stats, but memory says he isn’t usually instant offense. Droughts period in tournament time isn’t gonna end well.

That was a tournament type game today. Just being good enough means everything. Not sure what you're talking about about.

He plays starter minutes. He is 3rd on the team in minutes and plays more minutes per game than Okpara and slightly more than Mashack. Honestly, him coming off the bench makes the most sense given his skillset. He's a better scorer than Mashack and the better defender than Lanier and can handle PG duties when ZZ is on the bench. He is the perfect 6th man.covering minutes for 1-3. With Philips being the guy to back up the posts. The one thing starting him over maybe Mashack would help is the slow starts? I think Barnes is playing the rotation as well as can be done with our limitations on depth.

The fact that Bishop and Dubar have not really played i na way to demand minutes sucks and Carr leaving really sucks. But to keep on topic I think POG was lanier but Gainey was the x-factor and is most games.
