Nah I think the rotation is fine for a tournament setting. Yale and Samford have no problem playing their main dude the entire game because the reality is they will risk getting blown out two days later to win game 1. Very few teams make a deep run with a short lineup.
We kept a pretty heavy rotation in 2019 too and it’s part of the reason we did so well. There were 10 guys on that team that averaged 10+ minutes a game, just like this year. We had multiple games where starters had off nights and we weren’t really affected because so many other guys were getting a chance to step up.

In close game unless you just have someone go off from 3 or a team go off from 3 you have to get to the rim. Either by screen, cut, or iso. We didn’t do that consistently through the game. It cost us. Probably a little to much confidence that we could eventually hit the 3 just didn’t happen today. You have to attack the basket every possession and kick out to the 3.
