They're playing him a lot at the 4, which he's undersized for but it makes him a matchup problem on defense. Multiple times a Toledo big would try to close out at him and he just dribbled right by them for an easy deuce.

Chuks two slashing layups with around two minutes left were huge. He's shooting 84% over his last 5 games and puts up decent rebounding numbers for the minutes he gets. Problem is that he averages a foul every 5 minutes or so.

Yep all three of our 4-spot players average a crazy amount of fouls. The good news...we have three of them! Key/Bradley/Chuks, all slightly different games, but we can win with any of them on the floor.
If Maric and Baker keep playing like they have, you really need just one of that group to have a good game, and then one from the group of Porter/Wilson/Amrstead to have a good game, and we'll probably score 70.

RE: Huskies @ Rockets predictions
It would be nice if Armstead was attacking the basket more. Seems to be settling for a lot of long jumpers. And most of the times I actually remember him driving recently he ends up gettinf blocked or has the ball knocked away. Seems strange. I guess teams have figured out they're much better off letting him shoot from outside.
