I wish everyone concerned with who is getting how much playing time would think back on all of the basketball games they have watched. All of the UK coaches back to Rupp and every other coach I have watched, will jerk a player immediately for being lost on defense, they just will not tolerate it. They may let a few ill adivised shots go but if you don't play defense right, you are sitting next to the coach. That is why the ones considered less skilled are playing ahead of their more skilled teammates.

If you don't get it by going over it again and again and again in practice, you are not going to do it right in a game.
