Subject: Goode vs Karangwa matchup

Now that Prospers Karangwa has moved to PG for Siena, he will likely be matched up with Tyquan Goode. It should quite a site to see as Goode is almost 1.5 feet shorter. Goode usually plays the opposing PG, as he is a tough on the ball defender; however, off the ball,Karangwa has a distinct advantage not only in his height, but because he can also score in a variety of ways.

IMO, if Goode can keep Karangwa as a PG, the matchup should be goode for us. If Karangwa becomes the scoring option, we might have to switch Kudjo or Todd on him...... negating Goode's on the ball defense. The key is that Goode has to take him out of his game..... make him do things he is uncomfortable with.

I have a lot of confidence in Goode doing what he has to do on the defensive end..... but the matchup will be key

Goode has shown before that his height (or lack thereof) can be an asset. When the height difference gets greater, he is able to sneak the ball beneath and around who is guarding him. As long as he can get the ball in the paint, let the taller guys shoot it...'Good' things can come in small packages..they always say. I have faith in him. Go Goode, Go Stags!

Goode will need a little help from Deng or Thompson when Karangwa posts him up. Still I would let Goode handle Karangwa until he proves he can't...

If Karangwa posts up on Goode, that will force one of our big men to go double cover him, and free up the other Siena player down low. The question then becomes will our other forward/center fall off to cover him, or will he get an uncontested layup instead? If this should happen more than once or twice, TOT had better put Trix, Nick, Max, or Kudjo on Karangwa pronto.
