[QUOTE="mauconnfan, post: 3794464, member: 489"] Oh I think I do know it's different skill sets by no means do I mean he's coming in to play guard. What it is doing is making us throw a match up issue at the other team with size by taking Gaffney/Adams out of a lineup which has Cole/Bouk/one of them. I don't like our 3 guard lineup with Bouk at the 3 too often I feel he handles it plenty well for the 2 with Cole then you can have Martin/Polley with Akok/Whaley/Calton and get bigger instead of constantly playing with 3 smalls some of which can't make a play. Rather have a big who can't handle it well but can block shots, maybe get put backs and rebound the basketball. I agree on pushing the pace but only a couple of guys do that - Cole a little, Bouk a lot and even Martin. Adams will run out occasionally also but his decisions are scary like Gaffney. Again, not saying subbing position for position but bringing in a line up that will be more impactful. This cold change in certain match ups, but why not change the match up they way we would like? I do remember Akok was a great finisher when running he beat people down the court even after blocks and rebounds. We can still run with him and Whaley at 4/5 they are athletic. [/QUOTE]
