Anybody catch the end of Louisville UVA?

[the Q]

You could literally sit down, on your hands and still win with that lead and time left...

Actually that would’ve had the game result as the violation they had while inbounding

I didn’t read the whole thread, but I think they were up 6 with 6.8 left or something.

The travel with .9 was unreal.

No.. it was up 4 with .9 seconds. Uva had the ball and was dribbling up court and got the 3 point shot off at .9 sec. So they actually scored 5 points in .6 seconds. There were .3 on the clock when the last shot went in.

That was the Marcus White ball getting stuck game wasn't it?

Yes, we were at that game. On the way out, some UT fans came up to us and said they were impressed by our performance and admitted if the game had lasted another minute, they would have lost it. We had all the momentum in the final few minutes of that game, after trailing by a relatively close margin for much of the second half. That Texas team made it to the Final Four.

People at the game said the ref told the kid he couldn't run the baseline and the kid acknowledged. I think he just panicked.

Yes, I would’ve still called a timeout, what’s the point of saving it?

Call a timeout and tell the kid stand on the baseline and throw the ball to the opposite foul line= game over.

That was the worst decision by a player in Adel I have ever seen.

Freddy brown and Chris Webber say hello.

We had trouble containing TJ Ford off the bounce. Were down double digits in 2nd half and Calhoun holding his nose ( because he hated it) went to 2/3 zone and we came all the way back and neutralized Ford. Jim as soon as we were back went back to man and Ford killed us at crunch time . I wish JC stick with that zone a couple more possessions. Might have been different. And the neck ball obviously.

Gordon’s decision making was poor that game as well.

But it was also 6 with more time left, if I’m not mistaken.

It could be both, could it not? Down 6 with 6.8 then ALSO down 4 with .9 adds to the crushing nature.

I don’t care enough to look up the play by play but I watched the end and was pretty sure that was the sequence.

Padgett wanted them to foul for some reason. Just let Jerome take the 3, get out of the way, and then the game is over and you win whether or not he hits the shot. Bizarre decision.

Yes, and it didn't help that it was a virtual home game for them at the Alamodome, although ironically it may have helped us win it all the next season when the Final Four was played there.
