The players are coming around. Despite lack of size, the team has the makings of a real strong frontcourt. Lots of mental mistakes which comes with youth and inexperience.
The backcourt depth looks shaky.
The backcourt depth looks shaky? Try nonexistent.
Hell, when Koenig went out with a second foul in the first half, Bo not only didn't bring in Hill to play PG, he brought in a forward and left Showalter in there as the only guard on the court. The offense then looked ugly as to be expected, so after only a few minutes Bo brought Koenig back in.
For now at least, the guard rotation in any game vs a quality team looks to be Koenig/Showalter and that's it. If either gets in foul trouble or needs a rest, bring in a forward and go with a one guard lineup.
At some point it would seem that Bo has to let Hill play in games like this. Koenig can't be expected to play 40 minutes anytime it's a close game or if he needs rest/foul trouble, play Showalter at PG where he's clearly not skilled enough to handle.
