If player A is on the bench...they cannot be on the court.

If player A is on the court he can either keep playing or he can foul and come out.

One of these scenarios is the only way to maximize a players minutes. You can't maximize a players minutes by sitting them on the bench. It's the same reason I don't like sitting better players to start each half. You just guarantee that you will limit their potential minutes.

People say who starts doesn't matter. Baloney! It does for a couple of reasons. Maximizing the potential minutes of best players AND getting off to solid starts. You will always have the choice who is in at the end of the game.

yes...net result (on minutes) is the same as if he picked his second foul up after 2 minutes of play. The only thing you have done is taken the opportunity away from him that he could have played the 8 minutes without fouling...like he did the entire 2nd half.

You better look at the report ESPN came out with, Jake shows up on it

You absolutely leave out the fact that you try to manage a players fouls as the game unfolds because it can decrease his effectiveness. If player A has 4 fouls in first half do you sit him? How about mid way through the second half. Do you think playing his way towards fouling out decreases his effectiveness. WH I really think you may want to rethink your position. Sitting a player to protect him from getting his third foul in the first half is a good strategy. One that most coaches in the game employ.

There are solutions to the offensive issue. This team has limited talent. The solution is to never be in the half court. Rebound and release. Run teams out of the gym. Even if numbers don't dictate a fast break.

This team has some very high level athletes. There not great basketball players. Play to your strengths mick. Let them run and gun.
The problem with this is you have to rebound the ball first

It’s not a recruiting issue when he is still talking about defense after giving up 60 points in a game and having better options not playing. Admitttly not much better but better offensively. Recruiting is also an issue but not what I am referring to.

Pat does it say he was paid by our boosters or someone on our staff. If he was given money by a shoe company without our knowledge after he was at our school is that on us?

Mick being no different the most coaches will sit a player with 2 fouls in the first half to avoid risking him picking up his third. Him getting 1 so early in the game and sitting him was Mick trying to keep him from picking up his second.
I doubt any coach would sit their superstar after getting one foul for 8 minutes in 1H

51 subs last night in 40 minutes

Not one person expect Zion Williamson level player to come here. Not one. Good counter point tho
