You called it right. They went double big, double small at the same time.

Queta and Luke is a fun pair, they are frequently good in small doses. One of the best counterpunch pairings, if I remember correctly, per net rating this year. Fun pairing because it’s anti-Mazzulla Ball so the other team is baffled

Edit: Queta + Luke +17.3 per 100 possessions in 51 min this yr

Not sure about Tillman. But get Norris in there.
Tillman may be useful as a 2nd Big, in Double-Big, with either Kornet or Queta.

Pretty good comeback. Baylor can play. Walsh should not play again. Enormous difference having PP in instead of JD.

I’m happy that Walsh made some nba cash, but I wish he would have stayed in school. From what I’ve read there was no financial reason for him to leave after his freshman year. I hope more players take advantage of the NIL and transfer portal and learn their trade in school.

I think that we have to go with something like this?

Pritchard - Hauser - Scheierman - Queta - Kornet
Peterson - Craig

Tillman - Norris

I would have liked to see Walsh in the G League, another year.
He played well there, last Season.
