      Why don't you simply copy the same post 1,218 times and we'd achieve the 5,000 mark?

          I was simply asking how the most popular post in shockernet history made it 3 pages back.

          I read in another thread that EO didn't get much time Wednesday because of the size mismatch. Why wouldn't he get time causing a mismatch versus sitting because the other team goes smaller? I can see both sides, but it would seem that you could exploit the other team and make them go bigger, even if they aren't suited well for it.

            It really depends on how the mismatches work out...EO isn't going to be as effective guarding on the perimeter as he is in the lane (although he does ok with his length) Couple that with EO not being as effective on offense, it can be hard to exploit the other team just by size.

              I love the big guy!
              During Halls' absence, EO was averaging 25-26 mpg. Upon Hall's return, it's gone 17, 13, and 7. As long as the Shocks continue to allow all teams to stay close, we may not normally see 20+ minutes here.

                That makes sense to me. I have seen him gaurding on the perimeter and he does do a good job. Especially for a 7 footer. I would just like to see him get to an offensive point where exploitation is the best option.

                • I also think a big part of the minutes the other night were because our offense sucked. When our offense can't get anything going, it's hard not to have Hall and Early in as much as possible. If the offense is working at a higher rate, Ehimen can get more minutes because we're not pressing to score and Hall and Early can have a little more time on the bench to rest.

                        During the MSU game:

                        MSU had all 5 defenders in the paint most of the night

                        We were not shooting well from the outside

                        EO is not good (offense) in a crowd

                        He did do a good job rebounding when he was in

                          • It is really tough to play EO and Tekele together right now unless someone like Early or Mal is going off on the perimeter.
