Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 109350, member: 716"] Good post; the highlighted part is something that gets overlooked here too often. With talented but inconsistent players, we're not going all-in on any of these guys as far as playing time goes. Some mix of the three guards is our best option (as Boeheim has to remind the press after every game). Guys who don't play well are going to sit. Hopefully we don't have too many games in which everyone plays badly. On Friday, one guard played badly, he sat, and we won. That strikes me as a positive. I suppose one could argue that if he'd doubled his 14 minutes, taking minutes from the point guard who had the best stat line on the team in the process, he'd have improved upon his numbers. One could also argue that he was wild and forcing things and would've continued his bad game in increased minutes. Neither really matters; basketball isn't a game of what-if. [/QUOTE]
