Time to end the thing where Ben Moore starts

[SMHoo]

I hated that they subbed Ben M. in for the last two and a half minutes with Cannen and Yanick on the bench.

I think that was to have a quicker guy defending in the press and maybe to eat up fouls too. It almost worked (wasn't Ben on the trap that should have been called a travel?). Ben started, but he got less time than anyone besides Gu. And Larry gave Cannen more than usual with Yanick and Ben both struggling, so I think the minutes for our bigs were fine. All four of them struggled in their own way last night against Cincy's D.

Yeah, that was a terrible miss call. As bad as we played, we hit our free throws and get that turnover and just ONE three from Gu and we win. (speaking of Guu, if he doesn't start contributing and not be such a liability I question if he stays on scholly next year with all the perimeter skill coming in). Time for him to step up. No more excuses now. (not only did he miss shots, he had two TERRIBLE turnovers -- terrible because they were unforced and at an absolutely critical time).
