Scheyer could have played it safe and auto-benched Flagg, but played him with 2 fouls and the lead went from 1 to 17.

Have you done any “Moneyball” on sitting w foul trouble?

Always seemed odd to guarantee bench time (pull early) to avoid the small possibility of the boogieman of forced bench time (fouling out).

Technically 6 to 17 but Pitino will still get your point when someone prints it out and shows it to him

It was 1 when he got his 2nd but yeah he came out for a bit shortly after that. Pitino is still busy throwing RJ Luis under the bus while saying he's not so he doesn't have time for this.

You know the answer, Roger

Baylor also didn’t play it safe with edgecombe or Omier. Good coaches here

Helps that the refs are clearly favoring Duke so far. Makes Sheyer more confident that Flagg wouldn't pick up a 3rd...
