Is PJ and Hill our best backcourt pairing?

How did you think they fared when playing together, in the OSU game and on previous occasions?

Seems like there are several advantages

- Keeps our best driver (Hill) on the floor. Hill also has SG size, is our fastest and most athletic player, one of our top two perimeter defenders

- Keeps our best 3 point shooter (PJ) on the floor. Also our best assist to turnover guy

- Makes it much harder for teams to press against us with both primary ball-handlers on the floor the majority of the game.


PG: PJ / Mathias to share all PG minutes
SG: Hill 25 mins
SF: Ray 25 mins / Vince 10 mins
PF: Vince 20 mins / Caleb 20 mins
C: Hammons 25 mins / Haas 15 mins

20 minutes remaining at the wing to go to Cline and Stephens, depending on who has the hot hand

I like having them both in there. I just don't know what to think of Stephens anymore. 35% from the field and 32% from 3 as a junior. I really thought he would be a great player and shooter for us as he has all the tools and the family history, but he has just really struggled. If he is still able to take his game to the next level, it could really mean a lot to this team being a Round 2 or Sweet 16 team vs. something more.
