nobody on arizona played 40 minutes last night in a game they trailed. in fact nobody played more than 35.
I don't like the comparison. Arizona sucks. We're title contenders.Arizona plays 7 guys every game. They have an 8th man who sees less than Tyler Roberson sees in a game so for all of the "we need to develop a bench" argument...
Save it
Just send Gordon to the line, the game is yours.I don't like the comparison. Arizona sucks. We're title contenders.

It' s not the number of guys off the bench...it's getting some production off the bench. Unfortunately except for BMK our other two bench guys haven't given us a spark, they're mostly just placeholders for a few minutes (as in try not to do anything bad while you're in their).
Still only playing 7 guys. Miller just substitutes guys in and out for a breather.
In both cases, it is called "undefeated." Too bad the coaches don't understand what needs to be done.Arizona plays 7 guys every game. They have an 8th man who sees less than Tyler Roberson sees in a game so for all of the "we need to develop a bench" argument...

There's no excuse for this guys playing so many minutes and I think it's completely counter-productive. It's not like syracuse isn't recruiting well and doesn't have players that can contribute. JB has a great record but everything he does isn't always the best No matter who he has on the bench he still won't play more than 7 guys. Two years a go he kept the best player in the team (MCW) on the bench for most of the season. If you think he couldn't have played or didn't deserve more minutes then you're wearing your JB blinders

So, at no point during last night's game did you wish we had spent more time developing our bench? Roberson and Gbinje did an amazing job considering the situation they were thrown into.
Amazing, no. Adequate, yes. Roberson threw up a quick shot that led to a run out. MG hit a big three, but that was it. What they both did do was play adequate defense. Neither is ready for prime time this year...
In the 1975 NCAA championship game, Wooden's last title at UCLA, the Bruins went 6 deep. Four starters played 40 minutes. Marques Johnson played 26, had foul trouble. His sub, Drollinger, played the other 14. That was it.
So, how deep does a team have to be in order to win?
