I would like to see Capel try having Cummings come off of the bench and start one of the twins along side Federicko so that we can get some size on the boards for a change. Pitt is getting badly out rebounded every time. Having some much needed size would help get some second shots. Burton could run the point much like he is doing anyway, Elliot at 2 then you have Hinson at 2, one of the twins at 4 and Fede at the 5 spot. I would like to at least try it and see how it works… Read more »
The numbers that stand out is that they went 8 for 10 from 3 point range in the first half. Nobody shoots 80 percent from three. The rebounding has always been a problem, but they overcome it until yesterday. This is a long season and they will have their ups and downs, but they are in every game. Once they make adjustments based on how they are being played,they will continue to play good basketball.
