in my never ending quest for roadkills I''ll be "Dunkin".

[xufan2434]

How are people feeling about this one? I would assume Dee will guard Dunn. But the question becomes Henton. Does Remy get the assignment? Henton would have a size advantage but I wouldn't trust Trevon on him.

I think you have to have Remy on Henton. An inch or two difference, but gotta stay on him.

I think Mack should start Macura again and have him guard Henton. Change things up a bit.

Who guards Henton is an interesting question. Here's Providence's starting lineup:

PG- Dunn
SG- Lindsey
SF- Henton
PF- Bentil
C- Derosiers

Let's get the obvious ones out of the way. Stain will be guarding Derosiers and either Reynolds or Farr (whoever starts) will be guarding Bentil.

That leaves Dee, Remy, and Trevon to guard Dunn, Lindsey and Henton.

There's no way Mack puts Trevon on Henton, BUT I don't think he can guard either Lindsey or Dunn either.

Should be interesting to see how it all plays out.

Start out in a zone and hope they are as confused as we were in the 1st half last week.

I dont know much about Providence other than Heton is really good. Seems like Remy should guard him. Would Trevon not be able to guard their SG because of his speed? Would he drive right by Trevon?

Do we have a chance in hell of winning at Providence?

Yes.
