Give Jesse The Ball

How about asking what the play design was? As noted here, the entire thing was off. From the start. And it went exactly as I expected it to go. Disjointed. Unclear what the main action was supposed to be.

None of it surprised me at all.

The play was from Judah to Benny to Jesse.

During the timeout they showed our bench and JB. The play being drawn up was for Judah to get it to Benny who then gets it to Jesse. They are the only two JB spoke too. They fronted Jesse and the pass wasn’t there for Benny to make. He then could have shot or pass to someone else. He passed it to Joe and Joe shot with just under 4 seconds on the shot clock. I guess he could have taken the shot clock violation. And there was nobody for him to pass too. Jesse was the closest 20 feet away at the 3 point line. The other 3 guys were on the other side of the court. But that was not the play drawn up. 100% was going to Jesse inside.

That is why players shouldn't stand around and watch the called play but get themselves open just in case improvisation is needed.
