I am very pleased we blew out a bad team that to be fair is in complete disarray, but for the life of me I still don't get KD's rotation when it comes to a couple players. First, I have said my view on Rotroff and let's be real, did you guys see him tonight - my goodness. How can Kelly get ZERO minutes with what is becoming a typical Rotroff performance. Is Kelly in the doghouse? Kelly should be the second big off the bench after Harris or maybe even before Harris, but those are the two that should get minutes after Hughes and Marcus. Next, how can a guy no one else even offered, whose brother screwed Dambrot and who was probably given a scholie to keep Sincere happy get these minutes? MB got 7 more minutes than Acuff tonight and ability wise there is no comparison. Now I know they both played a lot and I thought Acuff looked great, but even if MB doesn't hurt you how does he really help against a good opponent? Yes, he finally hit a couple wide open 3's, but his overall percentage is still not that good and let's not forget who we were playing tonight. I am starting to think that KD, who was an undersized athlete, sees himself in this kid, which can really skew an evaluation. I guess the problem is other than Acuff we really don't have another PG as TDM is really a 2 guard as most of us recognize. If you are going to play MB coach just let him back-up Acuff for 5 min per half until we get more talent at the PG position and let TDM play the 2 - either starting or coming off the bench as a spark plug. Again, as noted in other thread, I would start Acuff, Okani, Baker, Mike and Marcus. Thoughts gentlemen? This will answer your questions. I hope that whatever the issue may be concerning Amari, it is a small one and will be resolved just like most of these kinds if things are. Amari seems like a good kid who has been through much in his short life. He's also a pretty fair basketball player who could really develop and help this team. Glad he's a Duke.

I want him to spend his entire college career at Duquesne for sure.
