Our guys fell apart there. How the freak did Richard Jefferson get that open? And I thought we had a timeout left? That's what Grant said after GS fouled IT... Couldn't we have called it after that Jefferson breakaway dunk?

WTH??? 2 big mistakes and they loose the game. I really don't understand why T. Williams was in the game as well.
He had David Lee matched up with him when he got the ball. Can't see the problem with IT trying to break him down.
My vote is Nate. I think he'd at least be consistent.

Pretty sure it was Mcguire the 2nd time after the foul to give.
lol wut. Obviously our defense did make up for that, since we were in it until the final seconds...
edit: Not really our defense, but other areas.

There were so many mental mistakes in the last part of the game but one of the biggest was not calling timeout on the last possession. WTF? They had 1 left. Unacceptable.

i think everyone but jimmer and outlaw got some burn tonight, how are players supposed to develop a rythm and know there roles when the line-ups are pretty much random. and when a player like klay is burning us all smart does is jump around and point, is the jumping and point gonna make MT grow 3 inches to stop klay.NO. how about actually coaching and switching someone else onto him.

Did he really? Reke was standing to the left of IT and IT didn't even look. Just dribbled, dribbled, dribbled. MT was standing in the corner. No effort to get either the ball, yet both have hit game winners. Smart has used that excuse a few times. How about getting the ball into the hands of your best players and not a cold IT or a guy on a 10 day contract!!
Sure, he is pretty good. But what he doesn't have is a lot a play time with the current group which leads to miscommunications and turnovers.

I understand that. But he was in for defensive purposes. No one could stop K. Thompson. It's not like he was in there jacking up shots. He was dishing off the whole time when he had the ball in his hands.

Yep that was my question as well. There's no excuse for that. We're not the 2000 Lakers. This young team, on the road in a close game, need that timeout!!

Good idea. Princeton offense > senseless dribbling then repeated slashing against a zone defense.
Is that what he said? I thought he said he was hesitant and it was a little iffy.

yup, sounded like he realized it with a little reflection, of course he's not gonna flat out say he made a mistake.

If that was the case, why not MT, Reke, Cuz, or even Salmons? I know IT had some clutch plays in college but those guys have been clutch in the NBA

Early 2nd Qtr for a 3-5 minutes would've been ideal depending on the score and whatnot. Then determine his PT for the rest of the game based on that stint.
Look inside for DMC on that last play. The defense would have collapsed, and someone would have had an easy shot. Or go pick and roll Evans/DMC. Make the defense give you an option of Evans slashing or DMC with a pop or a post-up.
I love hindsight sometimes, but seriously Smart.
