And that is something stodgy old Uncle Larry would never do. You were always looking for a smart shot in that system.
I think there were about 44 seconds left when the Pistons grabbed that rebound and headed down the floor with the score tied. I know there was enough time for a two for one, but I don't think all of the players realized it and the play took to long to develop. I think LB and most other coaches would have still called a time out to set up a sure play...But not Flip...and his superstar assistants Somebody needs to talk to these fellas about the art of coaching in the last 2 minutes....well maybe a full 48 minutes since there was no coaching or defense in the first half ..
