Of course, if we started our best players, Reeves would have had an opportunity to play with Reed and Rob for additional minutes. Instead, because we don't, we risk Cal fouling out our lowest foul rate player with 2 fouls in the first and losing time for the Big 3 to play together.Thought this was interesting, especially with Rob’s turnover issues last night. I understand that Reeves was in foul trouble.
By starting Reed, Rob, and Reeves, they could've played together for an additional 6-8 minutes. Seems like a big deal to me.
