I’m not against that 82. We have 2 more bigs that can be mixed in if your lineup was done. That lineup gives 2 ball hawks and good speed 1-3. And, we get boards. The downside is that 3 point attack not quite as good but with good ball movement, can be done.

I grew up 10 mins from one of the best D3 basketball schools in the northeast, I’m aware. They have no business playing with a decent UNcW team . Their center was 6’6, their PF was 6’3! Come on!

Reading your post it sounds like you think UNCW is not a decent team at this point . Sounds like UNCW is small and not a great shooting team and that can be a problem . I have not seen them this year so I can't really speak to how they look right now .
I don't think UNCW is a great shooting team, but I don't think we are small, we're just playing small. We could easily go 6'9", 6'7", 6'5", 6'4", 6'2" with Kelly, Baker, Sims, Okauru and Phillips and that would be an effective lineup.
That looks like good height if they play big and if that is a real lineup he might use but I was thinking he was going with 4 out and 1 in type deal ? At any rate in todays game you need to make 3s to win games and not just jack the 3 ball . I am not really a big fan of the 3 ball game but it's here to stay with all of its faults. It has changed the game so much to me that is just not as fun to watch anymore .

They played a decent first 15 mins vs Illinois state, but the last 25 mins of that game were largely terrible. And last night with the exception of maybe two 3 min spurts it was pretty bad. I don’t think we have terrible talent but the game plan and implementation of what they want to do hasn’t been good at all IMO
