Very difficult task against a well coached team. Only can hope that Stirtz has an off night and we find ways to shoot well and or get to the free-throw line. Line is -14 Drake. I could see us covering, barely, but we must get off to a good start! Very curious to see if Scroggins plays and what if any effect he has.

Well if you guys needed a reason for why Louth doesnt get minutes...here you go...

@rezynezy agreed that was an unfortunate few minutes to fall behind.. should definitely answer those questions for many.. They went down a quick 6 points (then more) in a few positions.

However, I don’t think the rest of the lineup was the right mix while he was in (Darius, Wright, McNair, Shaw).. might be better to put him in with Cooper on the court.. He did have two what would be blocks after others fouled due to someone getting burned.. Not saying he is some big solution, but in small doses, with the right lineup, could be an acceptable/quick change of landscape for opposing team.

@stephengries89 I personally dont think that Louth is the right play because of how quick Drake can play. Sure they like to go slow and methodical. Buit they are still quick to get short windows. Louth just couldnt keep up on D IMOP
