Is anybody else getting as sick and tired of guys pulling up and taking a deep, out-of-their-range 3-point shot at the end of games when it is not needed as I am? It is so freakin' annoying!

Just saw it for the 2nd time today... now a guy from Vanderbilt. This one was even worse than the Princeton player earlier (although that one was stupid and selfish as well), because this kid just dribbled and dribbled until he pulled up from 28 to 30 feet and heaved it - missing, of course. Both guys were thinking the same thing - "look at me as I swish a 3-pointer to win the game for my team. I'm gonna be on SportsCenter!" Instead of getting a much better shot by passing to an open teammate closer to the basket.

You are losing by 1 point. 1 POINT! A lay up or put back or short jump shot wins you the game just as much as these asinine 3-point heaves do... at a much better percentage.

Everyone wants to be a HERO - I hate HERO BALL! Too much watching and wanting to be a highlight on SportsCenter.
