May be you´re right.He finishes the game with 4 PF so I suppose he made 3 or even 4 faults in a very short period of time, namely during the first quarter.And I never play "let them play".
Doesn't 'sit them' cause more fouls compared to 'let them play'? (the foul trouble bit)
One think i could say that 'sit then' gives better defense because players in Foul trouble don't defend that hard.
Maybe when you have to bad guys, it will lead to more fouls, but i ain't sure that they always play fairer after having some fouls.
