We are loaded with three point shooters, we need someone to get rebounds...

and close range shots. When your center, who may be a good 3 point shooter for a center, is spending all of his time around the 3 point arc, there is a hole under the basket. I have seen Basile make a few and miss some badly. Not saying he shouldn't take 2-3 a game, but he is a greater asset around the basket. Mutts shouldn't be the only big man for offensive rebounds. I don't think Basile is as good a 3 Point shooter as Cattoor, Pedula or Maddux. We have the three point line covered in spades.

So You Are A Coach?

Yep. If Basile can hit the 3s, Mike wants him to shoot them.
