Biggest problem is Demin has basically disappeared

He's going to come out of his slump...I think that last 3 that he hit might be just the thing he needed...

mjmill

And our offense doesn't score when he's not in the game

nephicoug

7:23am

I would play him more.

Lifer

7:25am

I'd switch Baker & Saunders. We need another playmaker & shooter

SinkingQuffa

7:26am

Saunders leads the team in scoring and the defensive look of Demin, Saunders, Mag is dynamic in length on perimeter D

mjmill

7:28am

I don't agree with any of this. Richie should play the max minutes possible.

Lifer

7:32am

One of the worst takes I've seen on this board. Saunders is our leading scorer. He scores more per min. than Baker.

byuluvr

7:57am

He's the best player on offense and defense. Should play all but like 5 minutes.

Richie's not a ball-handler, though. Nor as good of a play-maker as Baker.
