In the last minute

of the game we gave up a layup in 4 seconds and a three in 6 seconds. What then is the purpose of not using one guy for token pressure to force them to pick the ball up in the backcourt. JB has said he doesn't do this so as to prevent an easy basket because the token pressure guy is out of position. So what, we give up easy baskets even with all 5 playing back. At least make them take 2 or 3 more seconds to get the basket.

Really can't refute that as it certainly played out that way. We also gave them a quick easy layup right before that too...we were up 5 as G made only 1 of his 2 FT's. We let them roll the ball to half court, 1-2 passes later was an uncontested layup...our lead was cut to 3 and like only 2-3 seconds came off the clock. Then the two Cooney made FT's...back up to 5...then the nightmare happened. :bang:

lol...yeah, we forgot the whole "prevent an easy basket" portion of that strategy. Four seconds. That was shocking - and ridiculous.
