  • Why not go to Miles more?

    He's shooting 70% for the season. Against USU he was 3/3 from field. We didn't go to him. He got that 4th foul but then Rose kept him on the bench till I think around 3:30.

    Wilkinson was killing him that game. Can't score when you're saddled with foul trouble.

    I was hard on Miles at the start of the season but his game is coming together much better and faster than I anticipated. I think I said somewhere that if he could be a 10 and 10 guy then this team could be special. I think he's close. At least a lot closer than not.

      He was in foul trouble. He also was not doing a very good job of getting deep in the post, he is most effective when he gets deep.

        Obviously he was in foul trouble and didn't get normal minutes. I thought USU's post D was not that great and he could score when we got it to him. With Lee out of the game, I thought it was obvious to try to go to him in the final 5 minutes. 1) he didn't get in the game soon enough i thought 2) they never even looked at him in the post in those last possessions.

          Another reason is that he is a liability at the free throw line. So I am sure they were worried about going to him down the stretch.

            Maybe Miles should go to himself a little more.

            In other words, get an effin' rebound for crying out loud.

              I'll actually agree with SMR for a change: Miles' rebounding has been pathetic.
              Everything in life is an approximation.
