At one point in the 2nd half, we had this lineup:
Payne, Bawinkle, Gatens, Fuller, Cougill

That's pretty damn pasty...no doubt about it!

Scott Unash on 1600ESPN's Gym Class must have expressed written consent because theres no doubt about it he says no doubt about it alot.
Except May in for Bawinkle, right? At least May can get his shot off with someone remotely close to him. Wink has to be wide open.That would be my lineup late in the game when trailing and needing a 3 to tie.

Wink has a very deliberate shot - it's not quick by any means. There's a little hitch in it before he releases.Woody,
Wink has a quicker release than May. May only shoots 3's when he is wide open. I believe Wink has only been blocked twice this year and I can't remember him getting blocked at all last year. I think Evan Turner just came out of nowhere to block his 3 last night.
Agree to disagree. We must watch a different game. Just because he doesn't "move" to get open doesn't mean his release isn't quick. I've seen him make plenty of 3's with a guy in his face. If you are down 3 points and need a 3 at the end of the game and you don't have Wink on the floor, that would just be terrible. Not saying he would have to take the shot but you could use him as a decoy to get someone else wide open.
I was actually a bit surprised he wasn't on the floor longer in the second half last night. He was hitting his 3's yet even when we went on that scoring drought and needed a shot he was on the bench.
Devan Bawinkel is a defensive liability, period. Does anyone not watch him when he's in the game? Sure the kid can launch a 3 when he's wide open but beyond that he doesn't move without the ball and he has got to be the worst defensive player that Iowa has ever had in uniform.
My sarcasm meter must not be working tonight.
Every team, every player, every opportunity...they try and iso him or post him up. Do you think its coincidence? And watch the last few minutes when he was in the game and Turner just takes the ball from him on a rebound....sad, just sad. They don't get that offensive rebound, different story.
