I wanna see:
Golden- 30/ Moore- 10
McRae-30/ McBee- 10
Richardson-30/ Moore-10
Reese-25/ Hall-15
Stokes- 25/ Makanjoula-15

Hall's minutes go down and Reese, Makanjoula and Stoke's minutes go up if Hal continues to play poorly.

I like it, but I'd give McRae the 10 minutes at backup PG, and Moore those 10 minutes at the 2. McRae is much more confident with the ball...

I've been hard on him but Moore played great today, loved the hustle by this kid. Looks like he was just playing out of position playing the point. Kid can ball.

Honestly until today I didn't get all the Reese shooting praise on here. He shot the ball good today.

Glad to see Golden step up and play well. I was losing faith, like everyone else.

Now that I got my, proved me wrong players out of the way. McBee shouldn't see the court again, especially with Moore and Reese emerging. I won't say he sucks, cause he is playing D1 ball. But he just can't get it done at this level.

Nice win, lets keep it going guys.

In being fair to McBee he is playing with a SERIOUS injury. But I do think with the lack of athletic ability his minutes should probably drop. I just wish all our players played with as much hustle and intelligents as McBee....

I agree this team plays better without Hall and/or McBee. We'll see what kind of coconuts cuonzo has taking two seniors playing time away for the benefit of the team.

To be fair, taking minutes from those two should take less guts, and more common sense. McBee has really regressed this season in all phases. Hall has just never gotten it and just takes up space in a bad way. They hurt their team with their presence on the court.

They probably start every game the rest of the season.
Hall only played 14 minutes this game though.
McBee still got his 20+

I think if Maymon or Miller weren't hurt then Hall wouldn't see the floor as much. Because Yemi gets in foul trouble and is still raw, I can only think that is why we see Hall so much.

Hall's minutes have been dwindling with the emergence of Reese. Then yesterday playing 4 guard was pretty successful and resulted in low minutes for hall...I have to think Hall will continue to get low minutes unless he's just on.

Yea, I see them starting out of respect for seniors but minutes could go way down.

They should go way down. There are more athletic, more sensible options on the bench. Moore, Reese, Yemi, etc. Those guys have much higher upsides than McBee and Hall.

There is something to be said for loyalty to your seniors, but not at the expense of costing yourself wins for the rest of the team. I feel more for Skylar, because I feel he tries and cares. If I'm being honest, I can't say I see that level of caring and dedication in Hall's play and body language. Its a shame too. If you could put Skylar's heart in Kenny's body, you'd probably have one heck of a player.

I honestly hate this reasoning. This is big boy ball. If there are underclassmen that can perform at a higher you start them no matter what.

Agree, it comes down to having the coconuts. Individual pride vs. team benefit. He gets paid to make those decisions.

Moore was impressive as not-the-point-guard. (He had been horrible as back-up point.) Trae played much better, but still doesn't quite have his shot going. Looks like he's fighting some lingering illness to me. And I'm with everybody who says McBee needs to be getting no more than 8 minutes a game.

I agree, but I think it's one of Martin's hang ups.

I'm really impressed by Moore's mindset. Most would have quit a long time ago.

I will say Moore is quickly changing what I thought of him. Just cutting him loose was a wise decision.

Much better game from this team today. Very impressed by Armani Moore. Hustle and grit in doing the little stuff and being aggressive on the boards.

This may have already been posted somewhere, but here is a link to the video of Moore's BLOCK!

True, but it worked in part because MSU has no post presence. Without Maymon and Miller, we only have three legit bigs: Stokes, Hall, and Yemi. I just don't think we can play four guards plus Stokes against a team with some size, or we'll get destroyed.
