Message: [QUOTE="bigknight3, post: 4487647, member: 5837"] I would guess more people see it [USER=489]@mauconnfan[/USER] 's way than yours. I've noticed it too. Once Sanogo gets his 1st foul in the first half or 3rd in the second, he appears to contest shots on defense with less effort in instances that we've seen him makes plays out after the game on defense now strongly in the past. Based on what we've seen, it looks like he's playing not to get his 2nd or 4th foul. I don't think it's out of being selfish but he clearly wants to stay in the court. Coaches need to teach him that having DC on the bench is a strength of our team. Which allows AS to play harder in short spurts knowing that he's going to get a quick breather. And he should play the game focused on not making boneheaded fouls away from the basket so that he can save those fouls to contest strongly in the paint without fear because he knows Hurley can sub DC in if Sanogo does get in foul trouble.
