Interesting. Granted I wasn't able to watch the Ole Miss game, I think he's been really effective in his role when he gets big minutes.

He's done really well. He's my favorite player on this team. But if you pay close attention, he tends to score in spurts. He'll score five points in two minutes, then not score for another 13 minutes. Then he'll knock down a pair of three pointers back to back and score six, then not score for 10 minutes. Then you look up at the end of the game and he has 15 points.

Defensively he's been tasked with playing a lot more 5 than any of us thought would be necessary coming into the season.

Yeah. I wonder who could’ve ever seen that coming. This is what happens when you want to coach a small lineup. You force guys into playing outside of their best roles because they’re trying to fill a hole they shouldn’t be in to begin with. Boggs is a 3 or stretch 4. He has no business being tasked to be a regular 5.

If we're in a similar position in year 3, I'll agree with you. Steere addresses your specific concern, I think, at least from a profile perspective. If he's someone we an count on by March, our most significant gap is filled.
