And I am also saying that Jump did not need to play (and should not have played) 37 minutes last night.  The outcome was never in doubt.  And Jump had more than ample time to "gel" with the other "key players" in 27 minutes, or even 30 minutes.  I know people in these parts are adamantly opposed to even questioning a decision by Tara, but c'mon now, let's not leave common sense at the door.

I believe Jump got extended time to hone her skills to better our chances to win the next two games and the rest of the season, not to win a game that was never in doubt.  Or maybe to get Jump to be prepared to play with no time to rest during a game.

Obviously you have a different opinion of how to coach a WBB team than Tara.  You're welcome to it, but I think it is not appropriate to assert it is common sense.  Unless you are pointing out how such a great coach uses uncommon sense to have such a good record.
