I've never seen so many awful lazy passes in my life.

It's an all-star type game, I'm kind of surprised there are any passes.

He played 1 minute...

[djsalway 4,161]

This is crap. Play him. This isn't about winning, it's about showcasing EVERYONE's talent.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Same thing happened with Vonleh last year. All you hear about in these games is UK and Duke players.

[djsalway 4,161]

So frustrating. If you aren't gonna play anyone on the bench, don't invite them and have a 7 person team...

[hoosierpap 14,300]

Yeah, this sucks.

Don't forget Kansas. 

[JSHoosier 22,198]

Well both those teams usually have 3 or 4 coming in, UK sometimes has 5 or 6, so there are several names going to one of those two.  You'd almost have to try to not to talk about them.

Over/Under on JB2 playing 2 minutes this half?

[JSHoosier 22,198]

These coaches know they have players on the bench, right?

[djsalway 4,161]

Some love for JBJ and RoJo.

[JSHoosier 22,198]

Blackmon coming in.  Let's give him more than 1 minute, yes?
