What...Triche was hot as you get...and JB rewards him by taking him out with over 8 minutes left...he carried team for first half of the second half...what is the story...unless he is hurt something stinks...

by the way we have 3 really good guards and a frosh in MCW who is going to be great...but tonight; Triche was the man...16pts,3 assts, 3 boards...in less than 25 minutes...and Scoop with 11 assts...bravo.
 
Scoop played well when he came in. Dion was hot. Wasnt like we missed a beat.
 
JB's pulled a lot of players this year when they were hot. Nothing new.
 
Brandon was on fire for sure. Anytime I think I begin to understand JB's rationale for substitutions he does something that seems completely antithetical to what would be expected. Go figure?

I think he had had enough run for the moment. Combinations get stale on the floor, and you try to add something to bring more life to the current group.
 
Was at the game and I thought, at the time, it was a good move. Game was still close and I like Scoop in there- he can make plays. I like Dion in there, gets his shot anytime he wants and his D is stellar. Can't make a wrong decision here but I figure that you can only hit so many 3's in a row before you miss a few-- plus you want to air out the ball and Scoop can do that.

Dion is our closer. He is also our best player. That is why.

I think that JB's doing a good job of juggling fresh players who keep bringing energy and scoring. Brandon had done HIS job and it was time for the next guy in the rotation to step up. And the very cool thing is that the next guy did the same thing. We have a bunch of good players that contribute when they're in the game. JB has to be absolutely loving this season...
 
Brandon played 12 mins straight, balls to the wall...it was time to bring in fresh legs. We don't need any of our guards to go 32+ mins a night.
 
Not like Dion or Scoop had bad games. We were struggling on defense so Dion is the better play and Scoop with the double double making the offense go.
 
Which one of our guards wasn't playing well last night? BT hadn't scored in a bit, if we were bringing Mookie in the complaining would make more sense. Scoop was playing well too - no harm, it wasn't like he had JUST hit his threes.
 
If you look at the box score and our 3 guards numbers they were all great! MCW had 2min 2-2 5pts 2reb yet he is behind 3 very good experianced players. Triche played extremely hard especially at the end of his second half run. Dion, Scoop and Brandon all play extremely hard on both ends all the time, do not worry about fouls or getting tired. They know they are all going to get 20+ minutes a game unless they play horrible. Its one thing if you go to the bench and the other guy doesn't produce but Dion and Scoop were making plays and were more rested. JB is pulling the right strings all the time but he also has 3 really good gaurds to make him look good doing it.

Maybe JB has graduated from only pulling starters when they ' to actually making situational substitutions because the three guys he has to play with our pretty high caliber and each give you something a little different.
