Interesting that MAS has fallen to the end of the bench and was put in for garbage time (3 min).  We won by 35, I think we could have afforded to give Agara (35 min) and Swain (36 min) the whole fourth quarter off.  I can only think that being on the wrong side of the bubble, Paye wanted to make a statement with the game with a dominant performance over another bubble team.  I don’t know how much winning by 35 as opposed to, say, winning by “only” 20 would hurt the narrative.  But had one of our starters gotten injured during the fourth quarter, it would have far eclipsed any benefit from the blowout.
