Oddsmakers shoulda listened to me: PC 4-5 point fav. I hope they lost thier shirts tonight. I bet Johnnies +2 and Auburn -1.5 in a teaser. Stupid me, again!Andrew post=454537 said:I am still shocked we were made the favorite in this game.

We did a nice job batting back and getting the lead but couldn’t get it done in crunch time. This has been a common theme this season.
Maybe instead of benching him completely, we'll shift him to small forward when King gets here.Paultzman post=454546 said:https://twitter.com/nypost_brazille/status/1488733508797444096?s=21

lol, giving nyiwe more minutes is not the answer

maybe or maybe not. What we are seeing on the court is clearly not working. So time to look forward. Champ coming off the bench may take some pressure off. the reality is, aside from Posh and Wheeler right now, no one else you can really trust.
I'd start him at center the rest of the season. At least he'd have mismatches there while on offense. He's overthinking the NBA. Time to get back to the most basic basics for him.montyaloofah post=454552 said:Gotta change something up. Sit Champagnie.
You just made me think of something. Champ said that he wanted to play the wing more and less in the paint this year. But, maybe being match up against 4s and 5s gave him a mobility advantage that he took advantage of. Now, when a 3 is guarding him, he no longer is quicker than the defender. He's facing more athletic dynamic defenders. That takes away his drives to counter when they played him tight on the three point arc. It also has a way of getting in your head, making you feel like you have to get the shot off quicker than you may really need to which impacts even open looks. I don't think its pressure for the NBA. But, it could be less favorable matchups.L J S A post=454557 said:I'd start him at center the rest of the season. At least he'd have mismatches there while on offense. He's overthinking the NBA.

It's not like it would be a worse move than having Nyiwe in at the end of a tight game.
