What the big men need to do now...

[dyedwab]

...with Lance injured (and thankfully, its not as bad as it could have been), what is the most important thing our big men need to think about over the next few games.

For me, the best stat from the UNC game was Mason's 27 minutes. So I think the most important thing they can do boils down to one idea.

"Stay on the floor!"

That implies two things

1) Stay out foul trouble by eliminating the unnecessary reaches, the frustration fouls, etc.
2) Limit the bad decision on both ends of the floor. Remember where you man is andd your defensive assigment, understand what the best shot is, etc.

The other stuff - the aggressiveness, the rebounding, etc. won't change. But if the big guys could focus on staying on the floor - i.e. not making K take them out - it could be the most important thing they do
