MM has not played well lately. BG has but you never know with him. I would probably keep the lineup the same and give the most minutes to whoever is playing the best
Who would you start tomorrow: MM or BG ?
- Thread starter UncleAdolph
- Start date
Moreno has been more consistent and better most of the year. He is a safer start. After the first four minutes if he is getting whooped or not playing hard, put BG in and see if he can play like he did yesterday.
MM was awful yesterday, but you still need BG coming off the bench.
Mark Pope did a great job of that yesterday for the most part. Sitting MM in OT likely won the game for us.

MM was nervous yesterday. Hopefully with a game under his belt he will have his head in it tomorrow.
Ever notice when BG plays well we win ?
BG
Moreno needs to be woken up, and maybe Garrison will keep up his great effort. If Garrison ever completely gets the mind with the god given ability, he would be NBA material.

Moreno. Giving BG any kind of self confidence vote is a bad idea. And to be just absolutely completely fair, BGs two “breakout” performances have come against LSU and Santa Clara. Moreno hasn’t been good lately, but to think BG has suddenly turned some corner is probably fools gold.
I wouldn't change anything at this point in the season. Continue to start MM.
BG. Until Moreno learns rebound with two hands.
Ugh, that rebound he let go out of bounds was so bad and we really needed that.
His hands are incredibly weak. Hopefully he hits the gym hard this summer.
Can’t believe I am going to say this, but he’s earned it…Garrison
Garrison has essentially had two (2) good games all year. Keep him hungry, coming off the bench.
As long as he can keep the "stupid, frustrating" fouls from happening. I love his hops and his energy.
MM isn’t going to help us this tournament. We’re going to have to depend on BG to play outstanding in order to have any chance from here on out.
I’d still start MM and Jelly because Mo and BG just seem to do better coming off the bench.

lol why is this even a question? It’s Moreno. You don’t change the lineup because one game.
Besides, BG is very likely to have one of his patented horrible games tomorrow. When has he ever had back to back good games? He’s MO has been have a great game followed by several bad ones.

I don’t disagree. He also did against LSU in the SECT. But LSU and Santa Clara are about the level of teams he can compete with. He’s 50+ games into his UK career and 80+ games into is college career. He is what he is. I’m happy we caught lightning in a bottle with him in those two games. I don’t hold out hope that continues. Night in and night out, Moreno is still the best option. If Moreno plays soft AF (as he’s prone to do) early against ISU, then run BG off the bench early (he normally does anyway). I’ve seen plenty enough of BG to know what he is.
Because fans on a message board that have a fans knowledge of basketball tend to be big time prisoners of the moment.
This is the way it will go. Whoever plays best will get the most minutes.
However if neither play well. I would like to see Jelavic and MO play together. Jelavic had 7 rebounds yesterday in limited minutes.
