The pressure is on Amherst, Hamilton has nothing to lose by coming out of the gates with both guns firing.  If they are on -- it could be trouble ....

first things first.  Union can't upset anyone if they aren't in the tournament.  They would be dangerous I agree, but the subbing patterns have worked twice already this year.  The subbing does have upside, new fresh players can guard and close out on shooters, Union does not like to put the ball on the ground.  Wearing down teams is what Hamilton likes to do, and their style is very different from anyone alse, so they are hard to play on top of being talented.  If the dutchman get the Conts., I don't like their chances, not deep enough.

Hamilton likes the 10 to 11 man rotation.  Full court pressure and plenty energy.  Problem is -- they've been hit with the injury bug. For the LL tournament and beyond, they must excel with an 8 to 9 man rotation which includes plenty of bench talent.  Coach Anderson is to be commended.
