[QUOTE="Deleted member 29907, post: 1391047"] Players don't get pulled for 1 mistake, they get pulled for making the same mistake or a mistake from lack of effort. Bombing 3s from 4 feet behind the 3 point line first 6 seconds down the court is not acceptable and taught to the team. TF didn't seem to have a problem adjusting and he made mistakes, but was typically the first one back to try to get the charge or steal to make up for the mistake. Finally, our previous coach was MUCH too forgiving of players making the same mistake or not hustling and that taught "it's ok guys". BU has higher standards. Not that I wanted MS to leave, but he was given alot of opportunity, and would have gotten more if he didn't reach and get into foul trouble early too often. Also not saying BU is perfect and I disagreed with some of his choices - including giving MS as much play as he did over DMW who I think has a much higher ceiling and BBIQ. [/QUOTE]
