I don't know how the players are keeping it together. We seem to have a reasonable solid 5 with MOC, DeLaire, Ingraham, Reynaud, and Jones and an improving bench. But for some reason, Haase won't stick with a consistent group and instead continues to do things like start Murrell and Keefe (who played well) and then start Beskind in the second half  to "send a message". The only message that is sending is "sorry, I don't really know what I'm doing guys". Keefe played well tonight, so will he stick with him? I'll venture a guess that in another few weeks he's riding pine again. Murrell starts and plays 8 total minutes. It's just so confusing and so hard for the group to get any kind of rhythm. 

We finally get the lead at 63-62 at the 4:31 mark. At 1:13, we find ourselves down 74-67. During that 3:18 of elapsed time, here were our subs from the box score:
Taitz Out
O'Connell In
O'Connell Out
Taitz In
Taitz Out
Beskind In
Beskind Out
O'Connell In
DeLaire Out
Taitz In
Taitz Out
DeLaire In

I understand you can sub two players for offense/defense or things like that, but this was overengineering. Why is Beskind even in the game at this point? He made a crucial turnover. And O'Connell was cooking in the second half, but he's being taken off the floor with 4 fouls. Why? There's 3 minutes left in a close game. Put your best players out there! Very frustrating. Makes no sense to me either, Old Spanish Trail.
