leitnaker. hes a starter and barely gets more than 10 minutes a game and sometimes less. we need him to play like his size and not get pushed around.
 
I would like to see more of Dulouny. He can be a great player for us and we need to see it now.
 
Printy. Consistency is key. He's a great shooter, but if he can develop a dribble drive, he's every bit as dangerous as Lathan.

Martin

He's gotta learn the concept of ball movement & play development when playing "D"...become PROACTIVE rather than REACTIVE, thus conserving fouls.

He's found his "niche shot" close to the hoop...a baby hook. Now if he just stop his opponet w/o fouling...

I don't look at it as being one player. It's teamwork and attitude from each and every one of the remaining players (let's call them the Great 8; they'll have to play pretty great to avoid the Thursday night game).

I agree with this, and more specifically we need to not foul out...we can absolutely not afford to be down even more players at the end of games. I'm pretty certain we still had the lead against WSU when Martin fouled out.
 
1. Great team basketball - making that extra pass, taking the gut wrentching charge, setting great picks, boxing out, talking on d, team above me mentality. We don't have to be the most talented, just the best TEAM.

2. Someone needs to be hot at all times. Doesn't have to be one person - Carl started blazing at WSU and then JP got hot, we've got to have someone really stepping up at all times.

3. Carl Richard has to go to the next level. Anyone else noticed the NBA moves Carl's been doing a lot more of lately? The baskets aren't always coming with the moves - yet - but he's starting to show what he's really got. Now is the time for Carl to take that leap forward to the next level.

4. The bigs have got to play well. All three, all game long. None of these five minute stretches of looking lost. Go watch a film of Brad Miley for a lesson in going 100 miles an hour, while playing within yourself.

5. Rashad has to run the point cleanly. Don't need to be flashy, just efficient.

Oops, I guess I went past one thing. Oh well, takes more than one thing to win a ballgame anyway!

I've always thought Carl needed to improve his fg%, but he has snuck up on me. He is 14th in conference games in %. He has really started to blossom and should be able to play on the perimeter for us some day.
 
I appreciate Richard's periodic ability to knock down 3 pter, but I think his "biscuits & gravy" are within 12', where he can use his quickness & one-handed NBA-like moves. He's finally developing the ability to go to the FT line, which is rarely an option outside.
We need a consistent INSIDE threat, and although Richard's only 6'5", he's more than capable of holding his own against 6'7" opponets.

Exactly, from the wing position he can drive and score or draw the foul. Remember how Moss used to draw fouls when he put the ball on the floor? Richard has the quickness and hops to drive on most wings and score inside. I think KD might be able to do that also.
