Debating the merits of an ACC Tournament Run vs Fresher Legs

This is an honest question. With the very short rotation of our squad and the very condensed schedule of the ACC tournament format, do you think it might better for the NCAA tournament chances to not have a deep ACC tournament run?

We know this team as currently composed with Justin Robinson can punch above its weight given Blackshear plays well and stays out of foul trouble. We could make the Sweet Sixteen even without him. But it's increasingly difficult not to envision this team wearing down if we have to have a handful of players playing 35+ minutes a game with games on 2, 3, or 4 consecutive days in the ACC tournament.

Obviously, if Robinson comes back, that changes the ceiling for our team but also helps Buzz distribute minutes a little more judiciously.

Thoughts?

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"
