Prof, that is what a smart captain would have done and that is what the coached should have coached, but apparently that was not discussed in the prior time out. He did it in the Suns game and got to the line 17 times. Hoisting a 3 ball with 2 mins left in a 5-6 point deficit was not smart basket ball even though that is what got you there. The defense was making stops and the Raptors were almost in panic mode and would have made silly fouls trying to stop CB or whomever was penetrating. A couple of
and one stituations could have tied this one and put them in a position to win maybe..
