Message: [QUOTE="newmexicuse, post: 1277098, member: 57"] Bottom line - we have had too many late losses this season in close games. Guys are bent over at the FT line. Add 1 or 2 minutes rest to the timeout in conjunction with the TV timeout idea & maybe we could be fresh at the end & seal some of these deals. We just can't expect guys to play 40 minutes & have fresh legs at the end of games. Substituting for any of our big four is tough because there is a huge dropoff in play from our starters to whomever might come in off the bench. Nonetheless, it must be done because we have seen the results when it isn't done & it just can't get any worse. A lineup I would like to see when G or Roberson are rested would be to bring in Chino. Rak could play the 4 on the D end & Chino could just get out of the way on the O end. So far I do not recall seeing that lineup this season. That lineup should give us size and be able to hold it's own on the D end for a few minutes at a time. [/QUOTE]
