Message: [QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 2120256, member: 199"] Sorry - it certainly isn't intentional I am seldom all that aware of whom I am responding to. And i agree that there is a pass available which I hadn't noticed live until I read your post. I just think those last second plays are really hard to judge accurately, and any pass has to be perfectly handled by the recipient, or the clock will likely expire on the bobble. Pros get it wrong all the time either taking the shot from half court when they could have gotten to the arc or getting to the arc to discover their hand was still on the ball when they released it. Gabby took an extra dribble before passing ahead to Lou yesterday at the end of the third quarter and the clock expired before she could launch. And it did take a brilliant defensive play to both block the shot and for one of the three defenders not to commit a foul. [Maya's three ball with the dribble was one of the best last second shots I ever saw, but I think only one in a thousand players would have the ice water in their veins to take that much time in that situation and I don't expect that of mere mortals.] [/QUOTE]
