If Brown is unable to play how do we play for the rest of the season. Everyone must play longer minutes.

Mase as the PG
Bradley
James
Pittman

Do we go with Jai as PG ,I hope not ever.

Johnson as a starter and Hamilton first off the Bench or the other way around.

I hope for one that JHamilton starts at the 3 as that will give us 3 ball handlers in Mase, Bradley and JH. Ok to good handles.

2.5 perimeter shooters 3 slashers to the rim.

Send Bradley and Hamilton to the boards on the defensive side.
Johnson first big then Lexi in for Pitt,Damo, JH.

Pg do we play Jai for 10-15 minutes or do we let Bradley push the ball and have JB handle the top of the key when GJ,Damo, Pitt in.

Do we bring in the walkons D.Dick and the other one to play some minutes. I fear that we will get more minutes then what I want to see with Jai at the point.

Interesting to see what Barnes will do tonight.
 
Without Ward/Balbay/Brown, I don't see any way around not playing Lucas for at least 20 minutes. I would hope that Mason & Bradley can each play 30 minutes, but that still leaves 20 minutes at Guard unless Barnes goes with a big line-up.

Either way, Pittman will be in foul trouble before the first TV TO and sit on the bench and mope about it.
 
I wish I had more confidence in Lucas, but so far he's been too easily trappable, too easily flustered, and kinda slow. But, let's hope he mans up cause he's gonna have to play..

Here's the big change I'd like to see (I can hear the shrieks already

I'd play Chapman in place of Pittman. He's more fundamentally sound, got more bball IQ, quicker and in better condition. I think he's ready to step up. Let Pittman come in off the bench. My starting 5:: James, Mason, Bradley, Johnson, Chapman. Hamilton in off the bench first for Mason or Bradley.. Lucas, as mentioned earlier, comes in to give whichever guard needs a momentary breather.
 
The official UT injury report was just released and Brown has been cleared by the trainers to play.
