I actually think that's a weakness of Cronin's

Imo, in prior seasons he has overworked his rotation and underseasoned his back ups. We've usually come into conference tournaments with the rotation beaten up and exhausted.

I think Perry should be getting a lot more minutes. And, I'm fine with Mara getting all the minutes that Cronin wants to give him - I just think that while the game is on the line, trying to have him back players down, and running the ball through him on every possession is not conducive to winning. And, it may not be conducive to his development. When the game is in the balance, get him some an easy basket or two, or three, as I've been saying. When there is less intensity in the game, let him do his post-up drills.

JMO.
