Since someone started a thread asking for one particular member's help getting him through the latest SJU basketball crisis, I thought I would do the same. However when times get tough I like to help myself So I am asking help from yours truly, the only person whose opinion I truly respect. So like a bridge over troubled waters here is what the team should do:
Start-Sima, Ahmed, Mussini, Ponds and Lovett
Will have to play zone, though any lineup with Mussini in it will struggle guarding anything. But the only strength this team has is Lovett, Ponds, Ahmed and yes Mussini making shots.
Since we have no low post players, Ahmed doing his bull rush thing against 4 should cause problems and get him to the line and probably foul him out as well...but worth it.
Yakwe 6th man. I know he is a great shot blocker and that puts him out of position a lot but if he does not get 6 boards a game he does not play the next game. He also is not allowed to shoot unless it is a dunk.
Owens will be the 7th man and Ellison the 8th only because you can't really just play 6.
Owens might be salvageable in short spurts. Eliison...well Louie Arena should replace shot clock with a running clock showing how much time until Simon is eligible and Ellison can transfer.
Amir-should play for 5 minutes each night purely for comedic value. Though in fairness Ellison's misses are much funnier.
German Barry Milhaven-he should only play when we are losing by 20. So he is going to get a ton of pt in BE play.
SJU should replace dance team with strippers.
