I think it is crazy people are calling this decision genius.


I am not even sure what the decision is that is genius? The time out down 11 with 19 seconds left to set-up a 3 by Outlaw or not fouling as quickly as they could after Blackshear's free throws with 43 seconds left? Wilkins did foul twice down the stretch that resulted in 4 points, so maybe if we just played D instead of fouling we could have lost by 7, that could have been considered genius perhapsbut we fouled twice!!!

Down 7 with 43 seconds to go, we should have fouled immediately.you are certifiably insane to not attempt to win the game there by foulingwe waited 10 seconds and fouled which if we were playing the NET system was the worst thing to do.just let time run out and we lose by 7.we got lucky Outlaw made the last 3.

I stand by my guesstimate that a 2 point change is not going to move our NET ranking by 1 place.
