Definitely a good point. My thought is usually teams don't foul with under 5 seconds left as you never know when a guy may shoot it and you don't want to run the risk of fouling a 3 point shooter. Also, you would still have the opportunity to make one and miss the 2nd intentionally at that point.
The coaching last night reflects the title of this thread, a DISASTER.
1) Keep letting Crowl and Wahl go 1 on 1 for the ENTIRE game for layup after layup. Zero adjustments made, maybe once or twice we showed a double and they turned it over. Other than that you can't let them go for 46 pts in...
Full rant. My Dad started taking me to games since I was 2 years old, and The Barn is my favorite place of all-time. I now have 3 kids of my own that I enjoy taking to the games and sharing that experience with. I've seen the good and the bad, mostly bad, but the good times make it worth it...
Also an indicator Shipley is clueless, "He never had a great team until he briefly had one this year". Sorry but the team that went 11-7 in conference play and earned a #5 seed in the NCAA tourney was much better.
Not sure which is more preposterous, that we NEED a coach with Minnesota connections, or if the coach is over 50 he needs to bring in an assistant to be the "coach in waiting".
I laugh at all these "So and so is interested in the Minnesota job" takes. Well no kidding, but if we have no interest in them who cares. Sam Mitchell also said on KFAN last week that inside the Wolves organization they knew they had the next Durant, Westbrook, and Harden (OKC) with Towns...
Although he was only here one year I'd consider throwing in Akeem Springs as the 6th man. Could defend, score, and all-around good leader and glue guy.
