If Ngongba is healthy, he and/or Evans should be getting Gillis minutes starting on Tuesday night.

Brown is very disruptive out there. Agree on the backcourt inconsistency, Kon’s two three pointers were very deflating shots if you were Arizona. The timeliness of when he hit them were back breakers. To hold them to 55 points in that building is a tremendous performance and it’s so nice to punk Caleb Love on top of it.
Will be interesting to see how things materialize with Evans and Harris. James has turned out to be a more critical pick up than probably imagined going into the season just based on how these games have unfolded so far.
Great to get a decisive win in the vaunted McKale Center on Lute Olson Court. I still remember that ridiculous double OT loss there in 1991. Laettner looked both exhausted and pissed walking off the court.

James at the 1 starting Tuesday makes too much sense.
Our D is elite and offense can be scary. I think Kon needs to stop passing up shots and coop needs to focus more on driving.. both are seeming to do what the other should do at times. Kon does add a lot more then just scoring though.. reading some of the post from halftime till the half way point in the 2nd half are a little embarrassing toward him.
Great win against a good team, glad to hold love to whatever he ended with and hope he and Steve Robinson cry together all night

One thing that stands out thru the first 6 games is, the guys that play, play with great energy at both ends of the floor. Just speculation, but the guys that aren't playing, while surely talented, may not be bringing that kind of energy on both ends. That matters when you're playing tough, physical games against good competition. Looking at the minutes Coop and Kon played, it's obvious coach values those attributes above pure scoring ability. Can't say I disagree with him.
Also, those that are saying Sion should start, why? He's the perfect 6th man, why would you give that up?

Because against elite competition, Sion appears to be the only guard who can get into the lane off the dribble consistently AND finish in there. Foster, Kon and Proctor not so much. I think the starting 5 needs that. I thought Foster would be able to do that but he seems to be more in line with Proctor and Kon, better at catch and shoot.
