UCONN-Creighton Post game thread

[Puppy Love]

At a pub for lunch just now. The replay is on TV. There goes my appetite.

Wish I could like this post 100x more.

If these players could genuinely provide good minutes (e.g., scoring, few fouls) CONSISTENTLY, they would be playing more in games. There is no team out there playing their weaker/est players in close games. Even Dawn played a small rotation against us. Why put them out there in a close game like this and set them up for failure? It accomplishes nothing.

If they’re not given more than a few minutes on the floor, I guess we’ll never know whether they can provide “good” minutes. Although even if they don’t succeed, maybe any failures would be offset by what the others might produce, with a couple minutes of rest.

And it’s not as if this was a one-game anomaly (because “Creighton was playing 5 guards”); in the last six games DeBerry has played 17 minutes total, and Patterson 45. Bettencourt has played 17 minutes in the last five (she missed Tennessee).

Geno may well be the greatest coach ever in WBB, but even he would never claim to be infallible.

Does anyone have a link for the players post game presser. Can't seem to find it.
Thank you.
