But 9-man rotation > 10-man rotation

Man trying not to read too much into it, but I really did not like Paolo's body language when he did not receive that entry pass.

He hung his head and slumped his shoulders very noticeably.

Franz is gassed. Gotta let him take a break or else he’ll keep shorting his shots.

Moritz had the ball at the FT line and didn't feel comfortable making the pass and then the ball swung the other way.
