I think tonight will come down to which team's "support players" step up. Enrique, Ali. Payton and Sullinger will likely get theirs', so I think a guy like Sammy or VonCameron Davis could be the real difference makers in the game.
The first time Mr. Pinky sends a double team at Enrique to help out Payton he will have clearly cast his vote as to who he thinks is the better player.
Good call. I just looked and I initially read the game stats backwards and saw 12/16 as his last rather than first game. WMU has some nice bigs but I;d sure play that kid more than the 18 minutes a game he's been averaging.
The team has had a tendency over the years to get caught watching, instead of moving, when the ball goes into the post or Ali starts backing his defender down.
