No coach in the history of basketball has drawn up a play for a guy to pump fake 12 times, step back, pump fake some more, then shot a contested fadeaway 3. Thats on Anderson for taking the worst shot he's taken all year.


Maybe if I didn't see Grevis throw up numerous heaves at the end of shot clocks last year coming out of timeouts then I'd see your point. Maybe Grevis wouldn't pump fake 12 times, but he'd look to pass it once then throw up a desperation shot.

I just don't think that Monty prepares his team with more than option A or B in crunch time. He'll, I think he'd rather "roll with it" and not call a timeout to set something up. Pro Monty's will say, "He doesn't want the opposing coach to set up his defense". Which I find absurd. I don't think Monty has confidence in Monty come crunch time.

That may or may not be true. But lets just say it is.

Ryno's got be smarter than to take that shot. It was an awful, ill-advised shot. I'd guarantee he'd say the same.

I'm well aware that I come off as a Monty apologist. I'm not, though. I just don't come here daily to blame him for absurd shite.

We battled one of the best teams in the league to the last minute. Short-handed. Again.

Blame Monty for playing Roberts. Blame Demps for Roberts still being on the team. Blame Demps for not having a real nba caliber backup PG.
