He's shown that he can hit the turnaround from 10-feet with consistency, yet the only time he gets the ball is for a dunk. I can't understand why he's not being utilized more. Our perimeter shooters are being blanketed, we need an inside out option. He can hit from the foul line and from outside the blocks. I wish KO would make him a focus of the offense.
Dogpause you have joined the magic dogma. Inside out is the way to go with this team. Relying on our set of guards to defend and make consistent shots from the perimeter isn't happening or working. Phil Nolan has improved as well and deserves to be starting over Kentan who has regressed and is very weak. I would like to see a starting lineup of Boat, Calhoun, Hamilton, Phil Nolan, and Amida. I reiterate Purvis is a TEASE and will torment gullible fans into believing he can be more than what he is. Purvis is a perfect sixth man, but even if Ollie starts him, he needs to get the quick hook if he isn't playing well or impact the game in the first five minutes. Ollie needs to learn from Calhoun on this. We need players with mental fortitude.
Lastly, Boatright needs to play much better in important games. He has had way too many lackluster performances. The game against Memphis was worst than the score indicated, and if not for Memphis collapsing at the end of the half, and the refs giving our players the benefit of the doubt, that game would have been a blowout. No excuse for a senior like him to play that poorly and have no impact last 6 minutes of the game.
