Message: [QUOTE="DogMania, post: 5115732, member: 21"] It's possible that at this stage of the season, Hurley wants to see how Samson and Reed can perform when in foul trouble. Can they play with two fouls in the first half or four fouls with quite a bit of time left on the clock? With that said, I'd like to see what Singare can do playing with rotation players. I'd prefer having 3 productive bigs that provide 15 fouls and can play aggressively as long as the level of play is solid. If Singare continues to develop, I can see Hurley giving him, Reed and Reibe rotation minutes next season. We I'll know how young bigs tend to get into early foul trouble until they learn how to play aggressive without fouling. Reibe will likely struggle with that like most freshman bigs. I think that will pave the way for some solid PT for Singare next season, but would like to see him get some this year if he shows he belongs on the floor. He showed nice touch at rim, blocked a shot and pulled down some rebounds, albeit during mop up time. One other thing, depending on the opposition, Hurley will decide to go small ball because it might be more effective and get more PT to the guards and wings. It's a trade off. But if we face a team with size where that might put us at a disadvantage, maybe we'll just see Youssouf in the lineup for a few minutes. I like how he looked and appeared to have improved. How much, I guess we'll find our. [/QUOTE]
