Video: Can Ant take another leap this season?

[PtldPlatypus]

Assuming the western conference is as close as it has been the last handful of seasons, the incentive to play Dame heavy minutes will be to avoid being a PIT or (hopefully not) make sure we are a PIT.

In an 82 Game Season that = being up by 4 against the pistons at the end of the 3rd. At which point you hope the team can close it out and you can sit Dame at the end of the 4th.

If the West is close and we're trying to avoid dropping into the PIT, that would suggest that we're contending for home court, which was the condition I named in my first post.

If we're fighting to win games to get into the PIT, then I'll continue to argue that we shouldn't be playing Dame big minutes to reach that status.

Last season, I remember laughing about the notion of teams "falling into the PIT", and to me its just so good it needs to be a thing.

My buddy at U of O used to pick me up in Corvallis and we used to drive down to Mac Court and play hoops.

My son saw the last Duck game played there......I saw Dylan in concert there and the sound was horrible. Rattled like crazy
