 Predict this...
Yes, I realize we haven't played our first game yet, but this is about who will develop and how much, along with chemistry and style development.
Who will be the starting 5 for our last game of the season (wherever and whenever that is) and who will be the 6th man with most minutes?
This isn't an attempt to get at an argument over how far we go, just who Pastner determines is our best by then.

Good questions. Hard to answer for me because we have so many quality players. I feel like Josh will play a solid nine. 4 freshman will get lots of minutes...Austin, Big Dom, Iverson, King. Josh has quality and quantity. it will be fun.

IMHO-rotation is more important than who starts and who doesn't. Especially with a boatload of good players

Well, we've seen a few games now. Who are your guesses for the first six spots on our last game of the season?

RE: Predict this...
Jackson, Johnson, Crawford, Goodwin, Nichols, Dixon, King...This should be your rotation. Develop everyone else in practice. Give them 2 to 5 minutes per game. They'll all get their chance next season.
Still want to see Wilson more. Anyone know why we don't see him more?

Why bench Crawford after an incredible defensive performance, steady point play, and clutch 3 point shots?

RE: Predict this...
Many of us have been saying that our line up will be fluid, depending on match ups. Not only is that not the case for our starting five, but it's not even true for our rotation and sub patterns.
Not sure if this is my prediction or my hopes:
JJ
GJ
NK
AN
TB
6th....not sure yet

RE: Predict this...
Lots of games left, folks.
The next few games are:
Thursday, Jan 23 - Houston
Sunday, Jan 26 - USF
Wed, Jan 29 - @ UCF
Sat, Feb 1 - @SMU
Tues, Feb 4 - Rutgers
Sat, Feb 8 - Gonzaga
That's 6 games in 16 days including a stretch of 3 in a week.
I suspect Pastner will be playing both King and Iverson more, getting them more minutes as we move into February.
The final three weeks of the season has MEMPHIS replicating that early part of the schedule - @ UConn, Temple, Louisville, @ Cincinnati, and closing out with SMU here. He will want a deeper bench, with more options.
Let it play out.

as long as Iverson looks to play tough defense and make plays with this length ....not looking to shoot threes which IS CLEARLY BROKE....keep it simple.
