Last time I put together one of these, I was worried about what Dayton might do well to give Xavier a game. Turns out I had that one about wrong. Now Xavier has had a week to ruminate on that win and will be back in action against a Western Kentucky team that I think we're all kind of looking at as the first of two tune up games in the run up to the Shootout.
Western really gets after it on the glass; are you going to go big against them? On the other hand, they have some big guys who can shoot it from deep; maybe you're better off staying small. And who is the second-team point guard? LAJ's TO% is disturbingly high for a reserve point. JP has low TO and a high assist rate, but Myles has the veteran savvy. It's pretty much up to you at this point.
