Great Coaching Non-Move By Jimmy...

Would love to see some Roberson tonight. Could use his length and hops to help out with rebounding vs Baylor's long dudes. I think vs Baylor the more athletes we can throw out there the better. They aren't a team who execute very well at anything except transition. Having some Roberson out there couldn't hurt, imo.

You might see Roberson tonight if you are in the hotel lobby when JB tells him to go get some ice.

I'm hoping that eventually this season that Roberson can gain JB's trust to spot some minutes just for the sake of giving CJ at least 4-5 minutes of rest. I'm afraid playing him near 40 minutes a night could wear him down come tourney time.
 
What you also have to know is that many times the play that he calls in that situation is not only used to score, but also used to set up a play late in the game, should it be needed.
I remember reading that Craig Forth was taken out of a game becasue in the middle of a called play, he took and made shot. JB reamed him out becasue he was counting on the play that he had called to be in the minds of the defense should he need a play at the end of the game, because reaction to the first play would leave the 2nd play wide open.

Not a big fan of some of the sets but I do understand that at times it's needed. I've also seen him call TO's when we are about to have a 2 on 1 or 3 on 2.
