Okay - so start Dixon over MPressey.
I know it's unconventional, but it seems like our biggest problem when we stall is that Flip will get down to about 10 seconds on the shot clock, remember that he's not a jump-shooter, then do something stupid because Denmon and English aren't really likely to make their own shots in that situation.
So have Dixon and Pressey in the back-court and give Flip the ability to scan the floor and see if he can set something up. With about 10 seconds left on the clock, set a couple of picks to get Dixon the ball with a little bit of space and see what he can do with it.
Dixon's one of the best we've had in years at making something of nothing; he's a damn dangerous weapon to have in that regard. If we use him as something of a safety valve in that situation, we might be able to get just a little extra out of him.
It can't go any worse than starting Matt Pressey does...dammit he's horrible.
