In response to HARVARDDADGRAD
Sure sounds like Aiken is probable for Saturday. Will have some rust and will likely play less minutes, but his return should produce immediate dividends by opening things up for others. Key will be to keep Towns involved. He should be able to find more space with Aiken on the court as a threat.
Agree with your observation about the D, HARVARDDADGRAD. I’m more optimistic about the offense. We do have an inside threat (for about 25 minutes a game), Corey showing life and Towns/Aiken. Bassey fine as the 5th starter, especially with left corner 3s. That offense should be fine for Ivy play. Djuricic providing good minutes on both ends, but Baker is still lost on offense. Juzang, Haskett and Perez get 10 minutes or less depending on foul issues. If we put our best out there and give them playing time together, it’s reasonable to expect games to turn in our favor. Will obviously need improved play with 5 straight Ivy road games.
Need to defend the 3 against Dartmouth. Thought Towns fell asleep on a couple last night.
Heading up from NYC on Saturday into the COLD. Don’t want to leave the building and head outside with a L. Will have a chance to see the hockey team right after the Dartmouth game. Another team off to a slow start.
