re: It's time to start Hunter Dean instead of Baker.

You can’t bench Baker because the spacing his shooting provides is essential to the ball screen offense we run.
I don't think Baker's 28% 3 point shooting on 1.5 attempts a game is scaring many defenses. Maybe if he was shooting 35% or better like he was at Nevada.

If we’re out there running ball screens with Dean, Fountain or Reed teams are just going to play drop coverage and take away any dribble drive option for Cook or Wright.
I'd welcome defenses playing drop against Cook, his midrange/floater game would eat that up

The point is they have to guard him out there because for his career he’s a good 3pt shooter (38% last 2 seasons). Playing drop coverage doesn’t mean they allow Cook to get within 8-10 feet of the bucket for his floater. ATM walled up just above the FT line with 3 guys so there was no floater being conceded.
