Vikes playing great D. Also good to see an expanded rotation contributing to the D. RM is showing signs of frustration. However, the Vikes have been missing point shots.

Interesting that after playing mostly a 6 man rotation on Thursday they came back using an entire 5 man bench this game. I don’t know why it took a loss to realize playing 6 guys wasn’t a good idea, or if something else changed in practice, but this was a much better rotation. |

He tends to shorten his rotation in the 2nd half or when the team is behind. The Vikes were in the lead most of the game today. His coaching style appears to be much closer to Waters than Gates. |

I don’t disagree with your point in general, but something definitely changed. Today there was a lineup with 5 bench players in the game together around the 13 minute mark (Lowder, Price, Pryor, Woodrich and Middleton). Thursday 3 of those guys didn’t even play at all, and we were winning at that same point in the game. He went to the bench earlier and we used more bench players than normal. |
