We have Nowell tomorrow

[HailUConn]

Huge, yes!

 

[Iluvsuebird]

I will say it again....there is little drop off from DH to Nowell. Only experience, because Nowell brings the D and a better outside shot.

 

[NJHusky]

Really curious to see how much run AN gets tonight...If he can continue his growth he will be a formidable backup PG come tourney time. He's a dog on D even though he's not tall and seems to be a willing facilitator. Doesn't get bogged down the way AM does.

zakai ziegler is only 5'9. nowell is 6 foot and looks like an nfl RB. i'm a broken record but it's imperative that he's entrenched as our backup CG by the BE tourney averaging ~15mpg.

our 8 man tourney rotation would stack up against anyone:

Diarra 30 / Nowell 10
Ball 25 / Liam 10 / Nowell 5
Liam 25 / Stew 15
Alex 35 / Stew 5
Samson 20 / Reed 20

35: Liam / Alex
30: Diarra
25: Ball
20: Stew / Samson / Reed
15: Nowell

Hurley plays on the team?

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Guessing 12-15 minutes for AN. 30+ out of HD is a lot, compounded by how much energy he exerts on defense. He’s only played that much the last two games and I’m guessing it’s due to AN’s injury and Mahaney’s struggles.

Must be dyslexic........DH vs. HD.

 

[Vowelguy]

Only appropriate.
Frank agrees.

for the regular season i agree. plus ross and mahaney will still get PT. but come tourney time i think the rotation gets cut from 10/11 to 8.

Feel pretty confident AN could take a 51 year old Hurley.

Don’t tell DH that.

Dassan Hiarra?

 

[Iluvsuebird]

My bad....meant HD!!

Dassan Hiarra?

Dadon Hoss?

I think Stew and Ross have been playing more at the 2 than Liam. Where is Mahaney?

 

[3rdbass]

Dassan Hiarra?

Dan Hurley! Duh! I guess the OP was drinking when he posted.

 

[Palatine]

Ross really helped silence Conwell. Hurley really trusts him.

Once again, it looks like Nowell is more highly thought of on the BY than by our coach.

 

[RuffRuff]

We on the BY really overlook Hassan. He’s not Magic Johnson, but he brings a lot of things to the floor that don’t always show up in the box score.

 

[bendm]

That’s my projected 8 man rotation for the tourney. Liam can def play SG. Mahaney is already out of the rotation.

I don’t think anyone is overlooking HD. He has really stepped up and solidified the PG.

He does need a break, he won’t last all season playing 35+ minutes a game

 

[Tiamat7]

Where was Nowell? Thought his physique and defense could have given Diarra a breather against the stout Xavier guards. No Mahaney.

I guess Hurley didn't think he was healthy enough to contribute. After Maui Hurley said he needed to play Nowell but so far he hasn't really listened to his own advice.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Disappointed not to see Nowell. Hopefully he gets some run against an easier opponent.

 

[HuskyWarrior611]

Hurley is usually slow bringing back guys from injury.

 

[RuffRuff]

Team is definitely short a true guard, so Ahmad will be a welcome addition back. Looks like DH has thrown in the towel on AM giving him 3 minutes in an OT BE opener. He must have realized it’s hard to coach up size, strength and footspeed. The karma of striking gold on Cam when Timberlake says no thank you I guess. Home run on Tarris.
