I don’t think the players expend as much energy in practice as they do in a game. The practices become less physically demanding late in the season as legs begin to wear out.As a geek I have never understood when people keep talking about how tiring playing 30 minutes is on a player. Or how tiring playing 4 games in 10 nights can be. When I went to school, when not playing a real game, you could always find the players playing a pickup game on off nights at the co-rec. aren’t they spending the same amount of energy in their pickup games?
A recent post talked about playing 4 games in 9 days and how taxing it would be physically. But that’s exactly what the NCAA tournament is. You play 2 games on back to back weekends. That’s 4 games in 10 days. If you can’t play 4 games in 9 games now without being tired how are you going to play 4 games in the tourney? And how is Purdue any different than any other team? Doesn’t every team have to play 4 games on two week end? How are other teams preparing?
I don’t understand how resting players now or playing few minutes prepares a player for the tourney? In the tourney, a starter will have to play more minutes! Shouldn’t we be using our current games to test a player’s ability to play 30+ minutes in back to back games?
When not playing games, aren’t players spending the same amount or more energy in practice?
