Message: [QUOTE="TheHorde, post: 5259932, member: 12735"] It also boils down to how many minutes am the bench guys are getting. If several are playing only 3-5 minutes, sure, they’re technically playing 10, but really only 7 got substantial minutes. Flagg carries a lot of the offensive burden and clearly he showed fatigue more than Cryer did. The bottom line is that Duke’s bench was not developed enough to allow them to take the strain off a few of their starters in the most important game of their season. Had Duke won and played Houston two nights later in the finals, it probably would have been even more evident. That loaded recruiting class didn’t help their bench depth enough. [/QUOTE]
