Play Bradley more then Hicks...

[TPFKAPFS]

Hicks will get it too! He thinks too much right now and is caught hesitating. He is a naturally aggressive player and needs to just play. He doesn't get any breaks from Refs and lets this get to his head. He will get the hedge thing and the Defensive positioning; the reaching might take him a little longer to break. TB is a really good big, but he makes freshman mistakes and isn't strong enough to be a starter. He will be a game changer once he gets stronger and figures out defensive positioning and rotations. He will need to focus on making his hands stronger especially so the won't get the ball dislodged by contact.

Hicks should start, TB should see his minutes increased, and Maye should continue to play but at a slightly reduced amount. I bet this is what ACC time will look like as long as they progress.

Would playing more zone help Isaiah?

I've always been one to look on the bright side in regards to Isaiah. I give him a lot more slack for his mistakes than I give to some of our other players - because I can see the raw talent and figure at some point the mental part of the game will click with him.

But I agree - Bradley needs to be getting more of Hicks' minutes. Plus, I'm hoping that if Roy makes the Bradley-Hicks switch, something he never does as alluded to above (starting a freshman over an established already-named-starter senior midseason) that will make him more willing to do so going forward - and might make potential OAD recruits start to think they have a shot at getting major minutes here even if there are upperclassmen currently slated to start at their position.
