Rotations

[Piratz]

Seton Hall is 42nd in % of bench minutes. What a difference a year makes after finishing 356th last year. I’m all for depth but you also need consistency.

Part of the reason we’re one of the worst offensive teams around is there’s no rhythm and too many new players, IMO. If you look at the splits no lineup is more than 7.7% and that one features 3 bad offensive players (Addae-Wusu, Aligbe, Erheriene). Sha is using so many different lineups.

I’d start there in settling a lineup and not pairing certain players together.

Assuming Middleton is healthy, he needs to play and become a main cog. Aligbe should come off the bench. He could offer more value with second unit. At this point Dual slows down the offensive tempo with his deliberate ball handling style.

I agree and would start there too. Get him up to 25 MPG+ at the expense of both Aligbe and Toumi. DAW/Jenkins/Coleman are going to be legit starter types with around 30 MPG and see how much more Middelton can do and stick to that. Let them get some flow get that quartet to like 27 MPG+ at the expense of all this shifting.

**Yelton would be the clear back-up to DAW. Dual defensive replacement, see how it goes maybe he can beat out Felton for back-up PG.

**Aligbe when we need defense or physicality in the post.

**Toumi maybe like an “instant offense” type off the bench when needed, but honestly, I don’t know what he does well consistently, but he can move the ball and knock down a 3 sometimes.

**The center rotation should link to PF a bit more. If Aligbe is in, use Gus with him. Toumi and the other two. Middleton with any.

IDK. It’s Dec 3. Can’t give up on the season so early but I’m throwing darts at this point.

Agree but do you think Middleton can play the PF against high major PFs? I think he can only play the 3 at this point. To thin to PF, handle not good enough for 2

Very good point. If we are in a rebuilding mode Middleton could take his lumps on defense, but may contribute on offense. In the meantime he could gain valuable experience playing the 4 at times, hopefully adding some bulk in the off season. If he dedicates himself to also improving his handle he could be a very versatile player. I agree though the 3 spot is where he belongs.

Gus should not see the floor for us the rest of the year. Okrafor and Godswill are the 5 rotation with light Toumi usage

 

[JTSHU]

Yea i think okorafor and godswill only at the 5. The 4 spot is a mess as well as the bench

Run some post ups for these guys. Screen away for them to flash to the post. We don't do any of that

 

[Piratz]

Have we run a single post up or made a clean entry pass for a bucket this season? 🤣💀

Yes to Okorafor last game on the right wing. Dump down on the box for a quick 2

 

[Burnsly]

I think once to Gus.

And rarely start in the post for some inside out game.
