In response to Columbia 37P6
37P6:
You raise a sobering point about Smith's minutes of activity. He's now on pace to play 111 minutes in this round robin event, that began for CU last night at 8:45pm, and shall come to a conclusion tomorrow evening at approximately 6:30pm- note that this is something not even LeBron's ever done in a 15 (plus) years pro career in which he's played more minutes than any other NBA player in the 21st century.
Wilt Chamberlain may have done it back in the day (I will research that further & get back to you)- conceivably, nobody else..... ...111 minutes (most of it engaged & on the ball) in less than 46 hours; and what if in the process of this ridiculous level of activity, he's somehow injured, tonight or late in the Fordham game, tomorrow, late afternoon? What will the powers that be say then? Will they say nothing? Will they rip out a page from that great exemplar's, Bill de blasio's book on SnowJobs, and, ever so smugly, pronounce, that it clearly wasn't their fault and besides it was all bad luck?!?!? Will they hang their hats on 37P6's post, and claim that Mike Smith is so very much irreplaceable?
Most clearly, there is no appropriate response or any appropriateness brought to a lack of one, should such an unfortunate scenario be delivered to us as reality.
