Some guys are going to have to get their feelings hurt and some guys are not going to be happy. Can't keep playing everyone for 15 minutes.
Fred needs to figure out who is going to play and who isn't. McKay brings nothing on offense and his minutes have to go down. He is fine defensively but if you want to play the way Fred wants to play McKay minutes have to go down. It allows you to put your 4 on George and that matchup is better for the opposition.
BDJ. He just isn't that good. he's fine, but you can't have him in the game for long. He doesn't play hard enough for long enough. Defensively he is a liability, he gets lost, and the ball stops with him a lot. His spacing is off and plays out of control half the time. Way to often he has no idea where he is supposed to be. As far as I am concerned the BDJ experiment failed. You just can't have him on the floor instead of Naz Long.
BDJ gives you nothing. Nader and Long are better defenders, better ball handlers, better shooters and can play hard for a long time. BDJ just isn't mentally strong enough to give you more than a few minutes. Nader needs more minutes. It's just insane to have BDJ out there instead of Nader.
Naz Long has to be on the floor, Morris has to be on the floor. Almost at all times. Nader has to play.
Make a decision if you are playing Houge or McKay, get Nader on the floor, tell BDJ it ain't working and lets get this going again.
Just no reason to lose that game last night. This team is playing like garbage right now.
If you lose against KU Saturday you are 3 games back of them, and it's over.
