Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 2598453, member: 5823"] I should have started my response by saying what I think that Nan meant by integrity of the game was... Then a response such as "likely incomplete" might have been changed to I don't think that's what she meant or (more likely) I disagree with your definition. Dribbling out the final second of the clock or not fast breaking or even opting not to shoot once the outcome of the game has been decided are not inconsistent with my definition of being competitive. Opting not to shoot is also not the same thing as deliberately attempting to miss a shot. Kelly Faris decided not to shoot in final seconds of the 2013 final four and was charged with a turnover -shot clock violation. In 2016 Brianna Pulido decided to shoot. Hopefully the difference is obvious and clear-having made a decision to shoot, always shoot to make it, otherwise someone (likely me) will accuse you of comprising the integrity of the game. [/QUOTE]
