Blake Harris is getting adequate minutes...

given how deep we are at the position and the fact that Harris still plays out of control. Someone said below that he likes to mash the accelerator when it's better to work the clock and/or the score requires a more patient deliberate approach to working the ball in the half court for a good shot.

He's an incredible athlete and I like his style of play, but at this point, Harris playing 20-25 minutes last night almost certainly would have cost us the game. Remember, it was Geist who hit some crucial free throws down the stretch. Phillips hit that key jumper with Harris rolling around on the ground.

Don't underestimate how important it is for a deep team to spread the minutes early in the season when they can too. That's a huge advantage in March.
