:shock:

It sounds like Kalkbrenner played little or no minutes in the second half. Can anyone confirm?

If true, was Mac looking at his backup center options

Kalk played 18
King and Traudt both nabbed 8 pts each so have to think they got the remainder of Kalk's minutes with Traudt potentially at the 4 as well

That is kind of concerning as Mac's system is not overly complicated. The base offense & defense shouldn't be hard to understand and figure out where you need to be quickly. Maybe it's more of remembering all the different sets/plays they call??

I've played with guys before that were uber talented and could run motion on offense but if they were on the floor the coach couldn't call a set because they would have no clue what they needed to do in that particular set.

While true that the defensive system is not the most complicated, it's widely known Mac runs a very complicated offense with a lot of sets. We see it happen very frequently where new players struggle to learn the offense. No one should ever be surprised when a freshman or transfer is struggling to pick things up. It's more of a surprise when a newcomer is able to learn everything quickly.

Geez, who was guarding Gilbert?
