Better than expected! But there is still a big elephant in the room. Only one way to change it. Win big games...

We are 0-4 in our 4 biggest games. Here is what I would prefer our rotation look like in those games, and what it has actually looked like in losses:

I would prefer (in minutes)
Broome 30
Jenifer 10
Cumberland 34
Evans 37
Williams 9
Clark 34
Scott 6
Washington 27
Nsoseme/Brooks 13

Average minutes in 4 losses:
Broome 22.3
Jenifer 19.5
Cumberland 31.5
Evans 38
Williams 2.5
Moore 6.3
Clark 36
Scott 11.5
Washington 20.5
Brooks 5.8
Nsoseme 6

Did you accidentally leave Moore out of your preferred minutes or are you not a fan? Cuz he's come up huge in some games.

I am not fully ready to make a wholesale switch from Moore to Williams. I think Williams is more talented for sure overall but I think he still needs more time to figure out the speed of the game. He can certainly be useful if we are being guarded heavily on the perimeter and need someone to get to the second or third level. I think at best we need to use them both in the right situations. Moore if we need outside shooters. Williams if we need penetration.

Appears that Moore may have hit a freshman wall. He is 4-17 from 3 in his last 6 games and only 32% overall

He hasn't been good lately. The bright side is...when early season questions were asked of the players on the team...Moore came up as the best outside shooter. He has made a couple of big shots. He seems to ride on confidence and right now he doesn't have it...but a shooter can get it back with a single make sometimes.

He has been off the mark lately sometimes not even very close. I don't know what happened but I hope he gets his confidence back. We can use it at some point in March.
