Rotation starting to work itself out?

Marble 38 minutes
White 34 minutes
Gessel 27 minutes
Woody/Gabe 40 minutes
Ogles by 25 minutes
Uhtoff 15 minutes
basabe 11 minutes
McCabe 7 minutes
Clemmons 3 minutes

Bassbe will get more once his conditioning returns but he and white need to take 95 percent of the 4 position minutes.

I like the idea of white getting more minutes at the 4; it's revitalized him. Im fine with him platooning minutes off the 3 but would like to see 15/20 minutes at the 4.

I think uhtoff is beginning to emerge from his mid season funk. Some good things in the first half. Moving White to 4 gives uhtoff more opportunity on stronger lineups. He is much better if someone is setting him up for a shot/drive versus creating on his own. Could be X factor for us if he can get confidence in last 4/5 games before NCAA tourney

i still think gessel needs to be at 30/32 minutes.

Oglesby's play has made it possible to move to this configuration, keep it up.

Ride whichever center is hot. Both played well today.

hopefully this last week set us up conditioning wise for a run.

Lastly I never want to see the all white lineup without White again, that was brutal.

Rotation, smotation... Rotation isn't what's important. What's important is which Hawks are playing well, together, that game and which aren't. Which is why Fran tries so many combinations. Some combination(s) of players(s) has got to ignite the team, right?

Of course, foul trouble(s) is a deterrent to rotation of players.

incredible insight. The opportunity had a decent thread/breakdown, and that's your reply. No wonder nobody else bothered to reply.
 
Hopefully Basabe is healthy by Thursday. It is quite apparent how important his contributions are to the team's success.

8 players is really all we need. It's not like we press and in the defensive set, the majority of the time we are in zone. I'd like to see the minute breakdown as follows for the remainder of the year:

Marble - 35 mins
White - 30 mins
Gesell - 30 mins
Basabe - 25 mins
Woody - 20 mins
Gabe - 20 mins
Oglesby - 25 mins
Uthoff - 15

Which is why removing the one guy who rarely plays well regardless of who is in with was important.
