If Rahshon does not score but 10, then you depend on Mike to hit 20 plus and Dodie to do 10. Is that the problem on this thread? To be legit, you weant three double figure scorers and we are not there. ISU will play manyu games in the fifties since they will burn the clock down. So we will have fewer shots. So we need to shoot better balls. If we shoot 24%, we should not be shooting. No brainer. Since Rahshon brings so much hustle and defense to the table and rebounding skill, he pays his way. It is our center position that is killing us. We give up 10 pooints down the middle a game and we only score 6-10 points from the position. Corey looked like our best center in two years. Devan is number two. marsden is almost on the radar. Jiri fell off on his first game back.
Yes, the problem I see is it makes us nervous that we can count on about 50 points a game. That puts the pressure on to hold the opponents down. Well, that is the way McD played ball at UNI. Defense first, sert plays to shorten the game, and then hang on with timeouts at the end.
Rahshon will not score 20 a game. Mike did. Dodie will. Wesley can. Marsden can shoot if he can ever get physically well. Do not count on breakout scoring efforts from Jiri, Devan, Corey, or Cory. EWveryboduy has a role. We saw an OSU team that had lots of scoring options. We are much more limited in scoring options. It will get better.
