I guess my question is … Why did T-Bil defend the 5 most of the Zona game? Is Book not up to it? We found out last season that Bil is not athletic enough, quick enough or strong enough to D up on most of the Big’s 5s. I’ll admit that we need T.Bil’s scoring and I like what Book adds to the O but going another season with T-Bil at the 5 on D is going to be hard to stomach. I do like Jamerson’s effort, but he only got 9 minutes against Az and looked pretty lost on the offensive end. Maybe it is time to throw in some zone with Book planted in the paint. We have a few cupcakes coming up, I sure hope we can use them to get Book and Jamerson locked in on the 5 D end…fingers crossed.
