Message: [QUOTE="cliftonparksufan, post: 273762, member: 9"] What's going on with these teams is criminal. They are not even trying to win. Mark Jackson should be banned from the league for such a poor job coaching the Warriors last night. [url]http://www.cbssports.com/nba/gametracker/playbyplay/NBA_20120421_GS@HOU[/url] Houston had a one point lead and got an offensive rebound with 23 seconds to go. Basically Houston could have run the clock out since Mark Jackson decided not to have his guys foul. Instead they shot the ball with 7 seconds left and missed but got an offensive rebound and put it in. Houston is now up three with seven to go. They foul GS (which is the move I like since they could only score two but I know not everyone fouls in that situation). GS makes two free throws with four seconds to go and they are down one. What happens in those four seconds. Nothing. Three things could have happened and none of it did. 1) One they could have deliberately miss the last FT which as we know in Cuse history that isn't always possible. 2) They could have called time out to figure out what they were going to do. They used five so I believe they had one left. 3) They could have fouled Houston and made them make two free throws and then use their last timeout and get the ball at half court. I would have tried one or three but Jackson did none of the above. Hopefully the commissioner is looking closely at this and other examples.
