I say we go Yogi, Blackmon, Troy, Vonleh, and Lyles. Their bigs won't be able to match up with the versatility of ours. Rotate Fischer in as needed. Who are these April, Priller, and Holt guys you mentioned? 

 

Oh sorry...was I talking in my sleep again? 

 

In all honesty I think starting Holt is a bad move. We'd be trying to match their size and play their game, which I don't see going well. Start Zeisloft, play our game and make them adjust. All predicated on us making shots of course. If we don't....oh boy. Sounds like RoJo will be okay anyway.

I believe ROJO is fine and will get the same starting lineup we have had.... However if for some reason he can't go I would love to see Stan get the start. I think a lot of his issues this year have been confidence related and getting the start could be a big boost of confidence.... I also think Stan driving to the basket would be able to draw some fouls.

 

My guess is that Z would get the start but if I was making the decision I would start Stan... then bring Z in as usual and hope his shots drop....

Stan is almost as bad on defense as he is on offense.

I think people are way to hard on Stan (not just you, but in general).

 

His on ball D is good, he is pesky, he is all over the guy... very disruptive which is what you are trying to do on Defense.

 

On offense he has a good dribble drive, needs to take better care of ball and limit turnovers and we don't want him shooting deep jumpers right now, but driving and pulling up for short jumpers or taking it to the basket are things he can do well, gotta continue to improve finishing at the basket but at his size he has to take some off balance attempts when he gets that deep in the paint.

Completely agree. His defense is much better and adds a lot more value than people give him credit for. He is the only one on the team who tries to create turnovers. I think he could be an all conference defender his senior year.

He really needs to stop shooting though. It's just not falling, and it's not coming back mid game at this point.

This doesn't make sense to me. What do you mean if he is not producing on offense he won't be able to on defense? I don't know that we can ever expect a defensive performance from Z like we get from Stan or RoJo. But that is not what he is out there to do. He is out there to for leadership and his ability to shoot the 3. I'll take that in this game.

I meant like you can go ahead and say he probably won't play amazing defense. So if he is not contributing on offense, then max is the better option in my opinion.
