It's the only play that keeps you from getting beat by the only play that can beat you. I'd rather go to 2OT than lose on a 3 like that. The team with the ball last down 2 or less has the advantage.

Take a ten minute timeout and really think about what you are proposing and then come back to the board

All you have to say is that you forgot it was a 2 point game and not a three point game

Based on his FT%, there's a 61% chance he hits 2 free throws, so a 61% chance you're going to 2OT.

What do you think the FG% was on the odds of hitting that shot? 25%, at the absolute highest.


Even if you say the odds of winning in OT are 50%, that still is not as high of an EV than letting him shoot the 3, pretty sure my math is on point there.
