Message: [QUOTE="cabbie191, post: 3074664, member: 417"] I understand your perspective, but I also think you can turn it 180 degrees and ask: What's the point in having Dangerfield diving after a loose ball on the floor when the team is up by almost 30 points? On our side, it's rhetorical - UConn players are taught to hustle all the time, regardless of the situation. I didn't pick up on who the UCF players were that employed the trap. Maybe they were those who play significant minutes throughout the year, and maybe they were kids off the deep end of the bench who rarely see the court and who wanted to play as hard as they could in the few seconds they had. And honestly, while we don't expect to see much playing time for Bent and Irwin during the rest of the season, I hope they will have had enough experience in practice and through the little game time they've had to be able to handle this type of pressure should the need arise for them to see significant playing time because of injury or foul trouble on our guys.
