Message: [QUOTE="RichZ, post: 2039890, member: 534"] The strategy on inbounding following a make in the endgame was clearly for the man who got possession as the ball came through the hoop to step out and inbound as quickly as possible, and for Jalen to go toward that corner as the first option. In that particular instance, the ball came right down into Brimah's hands. The play needs to be run as quickly as possible to get the ball into one of the guards' hands. Brimah did exactly as he was supposed to, but Brown was on his shoulder when he got the ball, and when he stepped out he was closely guarded. That caused him just enough of a hesitation that Williams was able to close on Jalen. Amida's pass was a little outside, but it did hit Jalen in the hand. Jalen mishandled it. As a pragmatic fatalist my rule is, Stuff is gonna happen, so deal with it and move on. (actually, in my rule, stuff has 4 letters and rhymes with spit). Anyway, we did. Deal with it and move on, that is. That turnover burnt ten seconds off the clock and ended up not costing us any points. Fortuitous bounce, but you take it where you find it. [/QUOTE]
