My wife came home after the loss. I told her that we were down 1 point with 15 seconds and to guess what happened. She replied, "They shot a three and had Sheed take it?"

3rd time this year that has happened.

Sheed had success in the post. Rip just hit a nice touchy jumper. Chauncey got fouled twice in a row driving to the hoop and was on fire from 3-point land. Having Sheed shoot the 3 was the last thing we should have done. That is just stupid. I don't care if he hits it.

Flip's fault for calling the play. Chauncey's fault for facilitating it. Sheed's fault for pulling the trigger.
