Our best lineup PERIOD - Oriahki, Drum, Lamb, Bazz, Boat

nothing more...I love T.O. but Alex is much more talented...he needs to be allowed to get into a rhythm out there...I think JC needs to loosen his hook and start working on getting Alex to show more enthusiasm on the floor - to have more fun out there...last season Kemba kept him smiling and enthused...and that was reflected in his enthusiastic play...this year- he does not seem to have his head in the right place...meaning - the staff needs to help him ...he's a little more high maintenance than we thought (JC's tough love does not seem to be working with him) ..t...kid is very talented young player who ave'd near a double dub last season and should be having repeated monster games this season as a jr
I hope JC continues to play him alongside AD

ps to the student section -

what ?...no An-dre Drum-mond chants tonight ?? SHAME! he deserved better

RB doesn't need to start even if he is one of top 5 players. We need to develop a 3 somehow, someway and quickly. Whether its DD, NG or even RS a decision is needed and then committed to. Can't keep yo-yoing these kids at this position in January. Its like Chuck last year, "it is what it is".

Captain Hook hasn't been his old self. March 1 we'll see a steady lineup. For 2 games.

I agree with you that Oriakhi should be starting but this lineup with two little guards won't work all the time especially against good teams with big guards. It poses a liability on defense especially perimeter defense. I have a tough time seeing Napier and Boat guarding big guards such as Triche and Dion Waiters of syracuse for example who have got some meat on their bones and are taller. We need Boatright as a starter with Lamb at the 2 pots and Roscoe Smith at the 3 spot.

Alex deserves the 4 spot and should be given more freedom to operate and not be given the hook after a dumb play. Drummond of course will start at the 5.

Gotta set up some more plays for Boatright... He's too confident a scorer... I don't mind him taking a shot in the clutch along with Lamb... He and Lamb are our stongest perimeter threats at the moment, Shabazz is struggling with his shot a little...
