What to do about Auburn’s Chad Baker-Mazara?
He blew it for the Tigers in the NCAA Tournament last season, and this time he goes into the postseason riding an ejection in the regular-season finale against Alabama.
------
Refs reviewed three different plays involving Baker-Mazara before kicking him out of the game. In the earlier plays, Baker-Mazara was on the receiving end of physical interactions.
But each time the refs reviewed the plays, they ruled that Baker-Mazara wasn’t fouled. In other words, the refs — right or wrong — thought that Baker-Mazara was embellishing contact.
Love the guy, but maybe at some point he should start wearing elbow pads if he’s going to continue taking cheap shots under the rim at the heads of his opponents.
