Seriously, trust the coaches already.
No one is more acutely aware of the substitution situation than Thad Matta.
No one is more aware of what he has on the bench than Thad Matta.
No coach at Ohio State other than JT himself has earned the right to run his program his way more than Thad Matta.
It's not like we have Joe Paterno as a basketball coach who barely knows the names of the kids on his team here.

You asked, I answered.
Here's the deal. Discussion is fine. Your posts are just a thinly veiled rant. Wrong site for that.
BTW, it was mentioned during the game by the announcer that John Wooden usually went seven deep with his UCLA teams. Do you think that John Wooden didn't understand the NEEDS of his team? I'm sure John Wooden wished he'd rested his players more when...wait..his teams did alright at tournament time, didn't they?

We've all seen your kind here - usually the ones who don't get banned are the ones who actually attempt to READ and UNDERSTAND what they are being told.
Newbies who come on here and immediately start second-guessing the coaches are usually frowned upon and then eventually asked if they like horses.

We're 38-3 in football and basketball this academic year. No other university in the country can match that record. That's not an opinion. That's a fact.
I don't have a lot of patience with people who don't appreciate that mark and look for reasons to complain all game long. Sue me.

I think if the main guys on the team got more rest they probably could have reduced the turnovers by 33.3% tonight.
You know, from 3 all the way down to 2.

Quite ironic that when I used facts and numbers for my case you were quick to shoot it down and then bash my thoughts in your post to follow. Now you are using numbers and expect me to be like "ok, wow, he used numbers, he MUST be correct." ?
Problem is man, you don't have patience. If someone's thoughts dont mirror yours, you have to make your case known again and bash the other case. All that does is make you look kind of childish.

Are you going to acknowledge the post that said that Smith and Sibert actually played the last 1:17?

UF hardly ran through the SEC in '06 or '07. In fact, in 2006 and 2007 at this time, they were in a major swoon and had just lost to a bad Vandy team by 15 points or something like that in '07. Point being, sometimes a difficult road through your conference galvanizes a team going into the tourney...SEREbuckeye;1878389; said:

After Illinois started 8 of 9 on 3-pointers, they were 3 of their last 12.
Two of those were by McCamey - one where Sully showed off the screen, got him to stop dribbling, then left him to find Tisdale and McCamey hit an NBA 3. The second one by McCamey was also on a high screen, and Sully had a hand in his face when he hit it. I don't remember their other 3-pointer in the second half - but tOSU didn't get burned on 3s in the last 20 minutes. So some combination of halftime adjustments, more focus on defense, and Illinois returning to normalcy allowed the lead to grow.
Along with David Lighty getting 7 points on 3 quick steals - it's hard to beat that for efficiency.
