I totally agree with this. You can:
1. Bench them for 5 minutes and then put them in and hope they don't foul.
OR
2. Just leave them in and hope they don't foul. Either way, you will have them on the court the exact same amount of time (in theory).
I understand that a guy w four fouls can't play defense as aggressively, but when it's JP or Goodin, who are critical to our success, I don't understand it. Lappas was talking like it was some kind of rule in basketball that a player with four fouls can't come back in until the media timeout under 4.

I understand the thought of putting JP in sooner but he wound have just picked up the final foul sooner.

I love this team! But we just didn’t have the talent and discipline needed to go to a Final Four.

What the fuck is this overachieving nonsense? Editorialize the talent all you want on this team, this group had a god damn 2 seed and a 1 seed and didn't make the second weekend either time. That is a failure, and I'm one of the most positive guys around here, just ask X Factor.

Why the fuck is the grad transfer from Milwaukee dominating the shots over the three-time first teamer? Unbelievable collapse. It was like Blueit didn't even want the ball sometimes.

Trying to keep perspective. That team brought a lot of joy from November until twenty minutes ago. Trying not to let those twenty minutes ruin it.
Tre has to be better; can’t have a Wooden Award Semi Finalist disappear like he did in so many games this year. But Tre, great career. Enjoyed the quick release for four year.
Going to miss watching JP. Once in a lifetime type guy.
Kerem, wish we had more time.
Next year’s team is going to be good, need a shooter though.
