Message: [QUOTE="Dick_in_MI, post: 4085365, member: 225"] One additional problem is that we have a bench that is almost entirely devoid of scoring potential. Sure, they give you things in other areas...sometimes...but when you have two of them on the court at the same time then 40% of your scoring potential disappears. Even when a starter is having an off night, you know that he is still capable of going off at any moment. That's not the case with our bench guys. We have no sparkplug off the bench. We have guys who can...again, sometimes...give you some other things, but not every night, and are merely placeholders in the scoring column. As an example, we scored 112 points against Indiana and in 36 combined minutes our bench gave us 6 points. Last night in 19 combined minutes our bench was held scoreless and only even took two shots.
