Jake he has to guard Bluitt. Cumberland really needs to play Mecura.

A couple areas I have concerns with.

1 our PG's size

2 and Washingtons strength. He can't get push around inside.

really have to sag off him, he'll take some awful shots. he's not really a good 3 point shooter, 34% for his career, same as troy was. but if he hits a couple then you'll have to guard him.

He just really gets them going. The crowd and the team feed off of him so much. He's their most important player imo and it's not even close.

I want to put Cumberland on Bluiett to challenge Cumberland. If he's up for it, that could be a huge plus for us. As I've said before, I won't complain if it's Evans on Bluiett but Mecura scares the crap out of me in Cintas.

He has to post up and can't get push d off the block and he needs to board. Two areas Mick has said he needs to work on. Both their bigs are strong. Washington is more agile but he will need to battle for the block without picking up cheap fouls.

Cumberland can't guard Bluiett. Just doesn't have the athletism. He could guard Mecura.

i think bluiett might be too crafty for cumberland. i dont know that cumberland will be disciplined enough. i think evans' athleticism will give him more problems.

and i also like cumberland to use his muscle to keep macura out of the lane.

That's fair enough. I just have a sick feeling about Mecura in that building. Haven't been able to shake it for weeks lol.
