Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 1238845, member: 780"] This sounds like the same old Boeheim criticism re-heated. If he played 10 guys early in the season and lost some games because of it, there would be whining on here that he ought to be playing fewer. Building a 7-man team comes first. I'm sure JB would like to have 12 guys who could contribute. Your point doesn't happen often enough to justify not-ready-for-primetime players logging significant minutes early in the season. That's risking losses for some theoretical benefit that may or may not be needed. Especially with the new team we have this year, Every available minute needs to be devoted to building the basic team. You are witnessing what happens when the base team doesn't play well enough together as a unit. This team has good players, but it isn't a good team as things stand right now. Playing more player could that effort. [/QUOTE]
