aren't we talking about the substitutions before these?

Yes - they were talking about the substitutions before these - but now that you bring it up - who cares if Faye & Nyakundi get in foul trouble with 90 seconds to go? The game was over - but if doh insists on the fouls with so little time, then just let the "offensive" unit commit them....just get the game over with at that point

Frustrating to watch Calipari work the referees in our house. Doh should have been going ballistic on those no calls under our bucket. It doesnt matter if you are right or wrong, those are up for grabs calls and he has to look for momentum and home court advantage to pull an upset.


Doh did the same thing @ the game Saturday against Bakersfield.
He brought Haynes in & 2 others @ the 12 minute mark of the second half.
Must be some sort of set substitution pattern he has going on regardless to what's going on in the game.
