A win is a win but…

A win is a win. There are no buts. You play to win the game. Hello?

Your best five is not your best five if they are on the bench. Screw the analytics and put the best players on the floor and let them play.

Didn’t realize UK had a new coach. Believe I will take Pope over you any day and twice on Sunday

He's right. No clue why some of you fans watch the game, see the nonsense subbing, then we win and act like nothing we just saw matters.

Talking about UK basketball is trolling. Bright one we have here.

Okay, since it's pretty easy to point out the sub patterns, tell us:
Without ever, EVER seeing these guys in practice, or reading their medical files, or knowing much about the opposing players, team and having a bench that is very very short on experience...

What is the ideal substitution pattern?

JR was hurt and Butler fouled out. When that happens it is tougher to put a best 5 out there. Thank God for OO.

Loved the play after the time out but where was the offense the 2nd half?? Just standing watching oweh carry us, a little concerning cause that’s not going to win in March.

Oweh ain’t passing it or even looking at anything but the goal. We’re lucky he made all those shots, because that’s all we had. Oklahoma locked up everybody else and Oweh was the only guy tough enough to drive through them

I love when people blame "analytics" for someone not putting out the ideal lineup.

1) We had some guys in major foul trouble. You don't think that played a role in the lineups?
2) We had two key guys coming off injuries. You don't think we were trying to limit their playing time a bit as a result?
3) I don't know what "analytics" you are referring to but there is no analytics in the world that's going to say yeah don't play your best players the most mins in a game.
