Red hawk I don't think you are following me. With 2 fouls he wasn't really in foul trouble. But in Lusk's mind he was. In the post game interview he (Lusk) said the 2 fouls are why he pulled him and why he didn't start him in the second half. So his minutes were very much curtailed by this real or imaginary foul trouble. He only played 21 minutes. He had 7 points and 10 boards in that timeframe which is decent but far from his best.
Also in the post game interview when our HC was asked Why he didn't re insert Alize into the lineup down the stretch with the game on the line Lusk said he "forgot about him". Forgot about your best player? Are you kidding me??
