If Damari could be benched for entire games for immaturity last year, Cam should not see the court for a long time vs Pitt. I’m sure Forbes will trot him back out in the starting lineup though.
We have too many empty possessions on O when we aren’t hitting from three. Pretty frustrating we didn’t have Carr in down the stretch while Cam was taking bad shots and missing them. He did get fouled quite a bit driving to the basket, but they hadn’t called it all game so I’m not sure why we thought that would change.
And I have no idea what the stats say, but I thought our best overall lineup today was Hunter/Parker/Damari/Carr/Reid. No idea why we went away from Reid and Carr in the second half. That was the one thing that was working.
It’s worth a shot, and agree there could be a lapse on D if Damari had to lock down a guard, but he looked very active on the defensive end today. I think Carr and Reid compliment each other very well, just like Parker and Monsanto. Our O just seems so much more crisp with those four on the floor. And I’m also just speaking about today. Points come at a premium against UVA, and that rotation gives us our best chance to score points, IMHO.Monsanto is playing exclusively at the 4 spot, presumably because of defense. I agree he was a lot better today but that was against a big guy. Very questionable whether he could defend a guard, but I do think it might be worth a shot just to get him on the court with Carr and Reid.
(No)Are we going to break 50
So Cam has been getting yelled at for the past twenty minutes I assume
Hard to figure why Sallis did the inbound then trailed Cam the entire way. Got picked up near mid-court by Beekman I think. Then with 3.2 & Cam’s head down, Damari is wide open for game winner.Just inexcusable that that ball is in Cam’s hands instead of Sallis’s there.
Where is the follow up question? “Coach, do you practice those situations and if so why does something like that happen?”
what a crappy game that was
There has to be repercussions against selfish Cam or Forbes could lose this team. Inexcusable selfish play at the end. Cam, Sallis is better in basketball than you, deal with it.
We better not take Pitt lightly just because it is at home. They won at UNC and are very athletic.Five and one would get us in absolutely.
