If Burrell is out for Geogia...

Who do you start in his place?

Brownlee, Coker, or go small with Hardy?

I just looked quickly at UGA's roster.  Seems they play small with 3 guards a lot.  At least based on mpg's their guards get most minutes.  I think it might be a good time to go with Hardy.  If it's not Hardy....I'd go with Coker.  I like the energy Brownlee brings off the bench!!!

Brownlee. Coker will pick up fouls early.
Hopefully, DJ can slide over to the 4 for periods.

Injuries are the one constant in this program.

i would just slide coker in and then go with a rotation of evans, coker, and brownlee at the 4/5 spots throughout the game.

Well I'm assuming at this point that Rob Thomas will be back.

We've decent depth at the position.  I'd give Coker the start to reward him for his excellent and hard play against Duke.  It would be a huge lift to his ego.

Brownlee can come in at the four and Rob Thomas can spell them for spurts if he is back.  DJ is more than capable of playing the four as well.

Georgia has a pretty good big man if I'm not mistaken.

I like that point Marillac. You play well you deserve to start.


However I'm concerned with offensive flow to start the game with both Boothe and Coker on the floor. This only leaves you with DJ, Paris, and Sean to score. I think this puts a lot of pressure on DJ and Paris to score early on because unless Sean gets it in the paint he isn't scoring.

He is an offensive threat having the ability to shoot the ball outside of the paint.

Offensive threat? Since when? He has potential, but hes also shaky with the ball and turnovers are a killer

What you lose offensively with Coker you get back in defense and rebounding.  He is also a huge body that can screen and might be able to keep some possessions alive directly or indirectly. 

If it doesn't work out, bring in Hardy and Brownlee and run.  I just fee like he has to be rewarded.  He hit the ground and hustled his arse off in addition to playing well.

It also might be good to start off with Boothe and Coker because it will almost force DJ to get started right away.   It will also force Paris to be aggressive from the get-go.

He also walks and fumbles the ball more. We need him back asap though, we'll miss his D more than his O
