Incredible scene in Brooklyn. A brawl breaks out with the Alabama bench running on the court. Thus, they all get tossed from the game. That leaves them with 4 players. Then another player sprains an ankle. That leaves them with 3. Even playing 5 vs 3 for significant minutes, they only lose by 5. Incredible.
 
Interesting info provided by tv analysts. claim that a team may play with as few as 1 player if the refs believe they have a chance to win. What happens when they have an inbounds play ?
 
So, are the morals of the story: 1) AL a potent team & Sexton is a stud? 2) What dumb asses the AL bench is? 3) Whaz up with MN? 4) Rick Pitino Sr. still bites it?:D
 
Watched it on Facebook. Minnesota was taking 3s with a five on three advantage. Announcers were saying Pitino doesn't know what to do it this situation. Actually played last 11 minutes or so first down a man after a foul out then down 2 men after ankle injury and cut a double digit lead to 3 with 1:16 to play and had the ball. Pitino would have probably been better off taking 2 of his guys off the court and playing 3 on 3. LOL
