TCU banked in a near half court three. 8 seconds? Ok. We foul. They hit two. We get fouled up 1. You have to assume we make both FT's (not a sure thing by any means). They still have 4-5 seconds to more than likely win the game on a three. If it were 4 or 5 seconds, than yes, I would foul right as the guy catches the inbounds pass. 8 seconds is too long.
Do you suggest we foul a guy shooting a three almost at half court? Is that what you are telling me?
I think Conditt was supposed to step up earlier there.
You know, I do think there are good and valid arguments to be made on both sides of the when or where to foul or not to in that situation, but I have to think that even if the same exact shot happens in the same exact way, with George hesitating/not getting his hands up, that 9 times out of 10 that shot gets missed.
Classic Cyclone nut punch kind of loss.
LOL at the people blaming ANYONE for someone banking in a 40 footer.
One THT, Wigginton, Shayok, and Lard from being awesome, errr wait...
That’s a generational player doing something. These guys either didn’t do what the coach asked or can’t do what the coached asked
That could have been game right there. But no. Surprised it's not getting more press.
Coaching is communication and communication happens when you find the right ways to get your point across. We should tell them not to make their 3s, not to rebound and see if opposite world works!
Why did he get the shot off then? We let him do exactly was was drawn up, clearly, Dixon didn't tell him to bank the shot but they obviously drew up a play to get a screen set for their hot shooter, Dixon told him to get by the screen and put a shot up. That's what he did, he got lucky it went it but it was on us that even got the shot off.
Bane(?) clearly had the last two touches of the ball. The foul was pretty blatant, and while they're not supposed to change their calls that way, I don't really blame him for doing so.
That was more just a funny story than anything.
Main idea is that players don't just miss the assignment out of defiance or neglect, they just for whatever reason don't get to where they're supposed to, when they're supposed to, no matter how many times it's been gone over.
And it happens all the time to all coaches.
And that's worth berating our coach and players?
