I’m almost certain that I would have substituted more frequently. I would have run more minutes for Svi and Brannen (if his neck could handle it). I would give Hunter and Landen a bit of clock.
I would try to push the pace, and keep the guys running.
We really had UNLV in the open court. They were very young and undisciplined. I rarely saw a time when we were unable to run open court, be we stopped doing it because our guys were getting tired.
I’d push pace and I would use my bench.
Hard to say if we would have won with my strategy or not. I think we would have been successful in the open court, but I know players like Hunter are a bit behind the rest, so maybe it would be a trade-off.
I always want to win a game, and I’d be careful who I have in the game during the last few minutes. But I wouldn’t have lost sleep over a loss to UNLV. I’d rather get my team ready for conference play and March.
