Dalcourt seems to be one of the guys seeing less time with Kobe’s return. Kobe came in during the first half when ASU was getting clean looks on 3s. Nobody was getting hands in faces, Kobe did, others followed. Momentum for stAte clipped.

Marlin put JB back in late to get to 30 points.

Both JB and TF, to a lesser degree, with their double doubles are in the hunt for SBC POW after Saturday.

I agree with both of your posts.

I really thought Isaiah had more court time but the stats show 3+ minutes. I hope he can improve enough to get 5-10 minutes a game. I think we see a little of Mike Thomas Saturday. I also think JB was being rotated at the end of the game because he had 4 fouls, not to get 30 points. He was in for offense and out for defense. The 30 points was a well earned achievement.

GEAUX CAJUNS!

I'm fairly certain he was in there for the points. I thought they should have left him out around the 5 minute mark when we had a 14 point lead and adjust depending on how the game is closing out but Marlin continued to bring him in. He's playing so many minutes it just worries me he will be worn down by end of season.

Marlin flipping JB in and out down the stretch aligned with/without possession, with 4 fouls, is a common practice. Like some coaches have a lead with a small ball handling guard with a great FT percentage; the coach puts him in on offense, out on defense.

Understand but we were up so much I thought why not hold him out and get some rest unless the game tightens up.

Well that's why he calls timeout during a run ... so the players can get a rest, and the game can tighten up.
