Steve Lavin had to be excited about his young Red Storm team coming back from 10 down to make big shots down the stretch to beat Detroit. The problem is that there are a lot of players competing for time, and Lavin is going to have to mix and match rotations to get the most out of this team. D'Angelo Harrison, and Phil Greene combined for 42 of the 67 points, and they are going to need more contributors against better competition. Charleston has a pair of first-team Southern Conference players to match up with the St. John's top players, and at this stage of the season the rest of the Cougars team is better defined. This is a team that likes to put pressure on the ball and create turnovers and advantages, and that will affect a young St. John's team. Play this one on Charleston.
