Re: Anderson
Anderson should play more. Bean is averaging just over 6 points over the last 3 games and it is just a little better over the the last 6. Bean is a better rebounder, but he wasn't great against CSU. For a team that struggles on offense, we could use him. I don't care who he takes minutes from. He i...

Re: Can we win with only three productive players?
Brito and Anderson are the X-Factors. Really interesting stat, and Brito's regression since the first 10 games of the season has certainly been a big factor in our losses since then (combined with Miller averaging 1.4 makes on 5.6 attempts from beyond the arc in conference play and sub-par play from...

Re: Can we win with only three productive players?
Simple fact is Bean has not been nearly as good in conference a he was out of conference. Some off that is with Queta back he has fewer opportunities for rebounds and fewer shots, however he seems to be missing more inside/ layups that he was in OOC. OOC he was our MVP, in conference he is solid bu...

I should have been more clear about the question posted in the OP: "can we win" was not intended to imply "can we win a single game," it was intended to imply "can we win enough to make the NCAA tournament and perhaps win a game or two there?" I came into this season suggesting I would be highly dis...

Our 2 elite players and 1 very good player make us tough to beat. Interesting that you single out one player as not being on the same level as the other two.

Bairstow . . . [is] fulfilling all of my expectations. Really? While he is a true freshman, I had higher expectations after hearing so many great things about him. He often fails the eye test -- regularly looking overmatched and out-of-control -- and the advanced metrics support the fact that he is...

I think Brito played better with Merrill, Miller, Bean, and Queta than he does coming off the bench. Totally agree. Brito looks better in the facilitator role than he does as a non-facilitating wing. He also looked better last night in that role than Porter has all season. Let's give that a shot . ...

Miller is .239 from beyond the arc in conference play (.216 coming into last night's game), which translates to onl...

The win shares tell the true story. We can't afford to bench Brito or Porter right now due to bad shooting. They are contributing in other ways which help.

Unfortunately, only Merrill, Bean, and Queta have been positive contributors for the Aggies, while the other five have ...

Utilizing the run equally with the pass is passe. The offenses that score the most points are spread/west-coast/Air Coryell style offenses, not old-timey 3-yards-and-a-cloud-of-dust offenses.

But you can’t always have him and Queta on the floor both within 10 ft of the basket. It messes with the spacing. And I don’t think anyone is arguing for Bean to become a volume three point shooter.

Re: Bairstow is improving.
My two biggest take-aways from the Nevada game: 1. Bairstow's confidence and play have improved significantly -- though he ended up with five turnovers (unacceptable), he had fewer moments where he seemed over-matched and out-of-control. He made his shots (1-1 3PA, 2-3 2PA), grabbed a couple rebound...
