I wouldn’t be upset or surprised if Ross started next game and I’d be routing for him to continue growing just like I always have been. It would make sense to reward him with the start. I’m just offering a perspective of understanding why it might not happen. I haven’t indicated a lack of open-mindedness. I’m only arguing against the idea that I’m arguing with you at all.
Exactly the problem was guys were inbounding and holding in the corner. They weren’t decisive. They get the ball in instead of passing it right back to the open inbounder who can push the ball up quickly they held it and have to work it up for 8 or 9 seconds which means less time in the half court to run the offense. Which lead to bad late clock situations. Working the offense with 22 to 24 seconds as opposed to to 18 -20 makes a world of difference.
That makes sense. I think I'm moreso triggered when the same guys that thought Ross might not play over Furphy (not you), then thought there's no way he plays better than Stew, are now popping in to give reasons why he shouldn't start despite his play and go out of their way to give him a bench player role.
Furphy might well not be part of it except if there’s an injury. But 8 guys played last night and none will be relegated to 0 minutes once Mullins is ready. It’ll go 9 deep anyway.
My view is, UConn was up 11 at halftime after being up 10-15 for a good stretch, had a nice run early in the half to increase the lead to as much as 20, and then BYU quickly got it back to the 10-15 range for a while. BYU then got hot shooting while UConn fell apart under pressure for basically five minutes, and BYU cut the deficit to 4-5. Then UConn got some of their rhythm back and handled the press a little better, managing to hold serve and maintain a small lead for the last five minutes, though if that game had been even 30 seconds longer, who knows if we hang on with so much foul trouble in our lineup?
And it’s okay for other to have an opinion that your opinion is bad.
I was impressed by Saunders. His only flaw against UConn was shooting 0 for 7 on threes. He had two early fouls but finished with three total. I did notice Solo going to the rim with his right hand. Just hope his long range shooting improves this season.
It's not only the total number of fouls, it's also how and when they were called and on whom.
He lifted it up his left completely and jumped off the right foot, thus switching the pivot foot. That is a travel all day, any day.
We looked tired.
It’s a step through. It’s a very common basketball move and was 100% clean.
A blowout would not have been assumed haven't they already been up 20. That is something to consider here. Not being able to put a team away is something. When you're spotted a 20 point lead, they lose a starter to a concussion and you can't close, it means something.
“Can’t put a team away”
That’s what I watched but from three different postings. Some longer than others. I usually get my replay from here or the trustworthy overseas source that posts on YouTube. Lol.
We weren't spotted a 20 point lead, we shot the lights out in the 1st half to build up that lead, something that is not sustainable over a full 40 minute game. BYU shot very poorly, couldn't make a 3, and Dybantsa struggled, something that is not sustainable over a 40 minute game. I'm not surprised the guy who said all month we'd struggle OOC can't admit we had a great OOC win though
Lol, and yet fans of every team everywhere always do. In this case, at least for me, I'm just arguing that the calls were inconsistent. That's indisputably true.

For the two "laugh emoji" reactions, did you NOT see this ? Because it was there the entire second half
