...when his team shoots well. I was at the game Wednesday night and was just as upset as anyone at how the final seconds played out. But, of course, it should have never come to that. I started watching the replay of the game this morning (it took a few days to bring myself to finally turn it on) and I was appalled at how we were almost breaking the backboard on a few up close shots (Pinson's stands out the most in my mind).
I think Duke has gotten in the players' and coaches's minds (losing 11 of the last 14 might do that to you) and has put a weight on us that we just can't seem to shake. Today's game helps me believe that when our guys don't overthink and let it rip, we still might have a chance. And, no, I don't expect Roy to call a timeout next time either. When we penetrate like we did today, he won't need to.
