Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 3500693, member: 1969"] I know many were critical of the Powell play at the end of First OT. But the absolute first priority is to make sure you get a shot off with less than 3 seconds to go in that situation so that their is zero chance you lose It basically demands a one on one play. (The only other option is to call a timeout with 4 seconds then try to run an inbounds play) And all season, the player that has done the best for the Raptors in this regard is Powell. FVV or Lowry can create in the flow of the game, but typically not on a clearout because of their size. The other option was Siakam but he has been hot garbage. Anunoby doesn't have the ball handling ability yet. So as a fan I was satisifed with that play and shot selection. [/QUOTE]
