Message: [QUOTE="Brooky03, post: 2990441"] If we were playing Virginia and fouled Guy on a 3 in the first half, would any Syracuse fan not expect him to hit all 3? Cuz I'd bet we'd all add 3 to Virginia's score immediately. Hypothetical, Guy has a wide open look at a 3, in rhythm. Does he make it or miss? He makes it, of course. I'd bet his percentage on wide open 3's is in the ballpark of 55-60%. Carmelo Anthony gets his defender to bite on the jab step and steps back for an open 12ft. jumper. Does he make it? Obviously he does. His perentage on that is probably in the 50-55% range. We're really picking nits here. Guy made those FTs because he's good at making FTs. He didn't rise to the occasion and pull a rabbit out of his butt. The bar for 'clutch' surely can't be doing something that is anything less than virtually guaranteed, can it? [/QUOTE]
