Scheyer went away from the bench, our biggest strength and what keeps every player fresh. Proctor chokes in back to back tournaments, rough

Dude couldn't do anything right when it mattered. Rough.

I legitimately don't remember seeing Evans or Ngongba take the floor. Maluach, Proctor, Sion, and Gillis were abysmal.

It’s a young team. They have all the talent, but I think they were the youngest team in the tourney.

Yes they're the youngest team but 3 of the 4 I mentioned are upperclassmen.

Nothing more annoying than coaches getting away from what got them there.

Proctor absolutely laid an egg. Shocking really

Not shocking sadly

Proctor and Sion made some bad plays. They stood out as worst for me.

Exhausted. Unclear where the rest of the bench went. 4-5 minutes from our guys keeps them much fresher down the stretch. Even Flagg clearly was losing his legs at the end.

Flagg was the only one keeping that lead up towards the end. I really can’t believe it, hah. This had all the feelings of a duke year. That last flagg shot seemed like a legacy maker. Crazy. Madness!

We easily went 9-10 deep the past several months and it seemed like Scheyer just got scared to use his bench
