Message: [QUOTE="Brooky03, post: 4541767, member: 8594"] So, Mintz had to get the ball to break the press. We know that that couldn’t have really changed. Any coaching decision that involves breaking the press with not your best press breaker is not a good coaching decision. So now we’re at 12 seconds, or whatever it was, with the ball in Mintz’s hands a little beyond half court. The numbers were even. If we waited to get our trailing guys involved, we wouldn’t have been able to initiate any kind of offense until something like the 8 second mark. Girard probably gets smothered and taken out of the picture immediately. Hima is wasteland of nothingness. We’ve established that Mintz isn’t allowed to do things with the ball. So that would have left Benny (Bell?) and Brown as the choices? The fact that I don’t even know which ones were in I think tells you how good they are as scoring options. [/QUOTE]
