So, from this graphic from the RockMNation folks, it’s odd to me that Mizzou has an odd reliance or limitation at who plays the “3” position or wing.

In short, Martin ONLY plays Mark Smith or Pickett...with limited minutes for Watson.

but...the issue I see is why is there never a rotation of a 3 guard offense with Dru, X and Buggs? Or, a bigger lineup where guys with traditional “3” skills like Mitchell Smith, Kobe or Parker play alongside a bigger 4 and 5?

again, not an referendum on Mark Smith it Pickett...but I don’t understand why there isn’t actually greater flexibility or match-up making in an allegedly position-less offense
