We have some great bigs, but ... would we play better with 1 big at a time?

That would be painful with less minutes to go around. But play mostly Harms/Harward with more minutes for wings?

I think the thought was that Haarms, Lowell, and Loehner would be bigs that play like wings, but that just hasn't happened and their shooting %s are really poor. It seems getting more shooters/passers on the court against WCC teams particularly might be good.

Thoughts on BYU SMC game

Agreed on practically everything you wrote.

It seems everyone says Barcello has to get more shots. Surely Pope would know how to orchestrate that, right?

This team dribbles a lot. That is why the assist numbers were low. Move the ball

ton of isolation plays=no assists; was kind of frustrating at times

St. Mary’s plays to take people out of their passing and assist games

interesting. I just thought too much going to Harward down low.

George has next level athleticism, but his technique is yet to be this level.

The game plan was obviousl. NO outside shots, everything must go into the bigs.

Haarms is crucial to what we do on defense, though. He's our Rudy Gobert at

I find it interesting that he hasn’t been closing games.

It is important to put your rebounders in to close out games. Harward rebounds

It certainly makes sense - just surprised we are seeing Pope do it.

Physical game with no call refs required physical guys Harward, Lohner, George

Bigs and shooting from distance

Agree. I am glad someone else realizes our bigs need at

Lineups always or should always be based on match-ups, as you already know

Not if you can’t hit outside shots,

bald man

I guess that's true. But I'd rather have Harding/Johnson/Knell shooting 3s than

Anyone else notice the lack of movement once the ball went into the post?

I agree. I can only think they are being taught to watch

Just rewatched the last 11 minutes.
