One minor quibble: we need Green more for getting and preventing O rebounds rather than just minutes.
We settled in with Bello in the second half as Butler did not play a big lineup, so Bello and Ashworth together was not problematic. However, against U Conn, they are bigger at every position but one. They dominated us (and MU yesterday) on O rebounds. We need to be good on the glass to beat U Conn.
Also, to have a shot on day 2 or 3 of the BET we need minutes.
Agree - bigger guys will need to be ready for UConn. They beat us up bad on the boards last time and we also gave them the ball over and over. Hope that Miller and Green are ready to go to battle this week
