Amazing wade buried him on bench and lsu lost him
What a great coach
Cook is ten times better than Gaines that season

You’re an idiot. And obviously don’t know basketball.

Cook wanted more playing time understandably but Gaines was MUCH MUCH better on the defensive side, specifically switching, because of his length and athleticism.
Our team had other players that did all the scoring so Cook’s offense wasn’t needed as much as defense.

I wish he would’ve stayed at the time too but understand why he left as it was better for him to get playing time

go back to bed you are drunk!

Cam Thomas and Javonte were starters on that team and took most of the shots! Gaines got more playing time frankly because he brought more to the table on the press and from a defensive stand-point.
