everyone keeps talking about our shooting... but without dribble penetration, all we're doing is swinging the ball around the perimeter and hoisting up contested shots. maybe if we had one more guy on the floor who could get inside with dribble penetration, gallo would hit more of his shots and we could all stop hating on him (myself included).
i agree with the guys who say start fields at the 2. the guy is raw, but he can at least get around his man (in addition to all the other little things he's shown he can do... rebound, d, and shoot). bully can't. mason can't. chandler barely can as a 2.
with felton and fields, there will be more kickouts to open shooters because the other team would have to collapse more. this puts chandler back on the bench to come in as a more natural 3/4 and allows TD to back up as the 1/2.
we all keep talking about our athleticism, but there's more to athleticism than vertical leap... we need more guys like fields with the lateral quickness... especially at the shooting guard position, and especially if we're not going to look to take advantage of our height mismatches with post -ups (which we haven't been doing with chandler and gallo at the 2 and 3).
