I was tracking with you until the bolded. The number of extended breaks might be increased, but it has no impact on the number of inbound plays that would be taking place. These inbound plays would be taking place no matter what. It is not like the officials blow a whistle simply to have a tv timeout. There is generally a valid reason for the game stoppage (though the number of reviews late in the game is getting ridiculous).
The more timeouts, the more times that the ball potentially has to be inbounded, i.e. the ball was already in play after being inbounded when the timeout was called. Brad does that all the time. That’s because each team in the NCAA tournament is given four timeouts per game, and the sport itself, thanks to TV demands, takes eight mandatory timeouts per regulation time, one after the 16-, the 12-, the 8- and the 4-minute mark of each half.
That’s a total of 16 timeouts available in Tournament games

This is no different than a regular season game...just saying. There might be more tv commercials in a tourney game (i.e., the game stoppage is longer than what would be seen in non-tourney game), but the number of inbound plays is not increased in a tourney game vs regular season game.

Who would you prefer between Fland, Claude or Sarr if the money is about the same? I don't know that it is but if it is or close then I like the idea of Sarr at his size, skill and potential. Or is Sarr more expensive than those 2?

Could he be that guy if we have suddenly found that kind of cash for another stud besides Stojakovic?
Sarr could be, in my opinion. As could Jamir Watkins, also in my opinion.
