Thanks for proving my point

If I’d have referenced Fred Brown instead you’d have spun it some other way

The "spin" is being attempted by you. I don't even have an incentive or bias either way.
I guess you're trying to act like the thread wasn't blown up by people simply citing Florida as a counter example. But it was.
That continues to happen as you go back through the time frame in the OP. Arguably the best team in that time frame, 2023-24 UConn, was a guard-heavy team. Clingan was a really important part of that team too. As I said, it's really about being a complete team. But if you're giving weight by position, that team was guard-heavy. There are different ways to win, and build rosters, though.

The degree of difficulty on that last play you're trying to fixate on was high. That's why it's not the "blunder" you want to portray it as for your narrative. Would it have been a blunder if Mullins missed the shot vs. Duke? No, because that shot also had a high degree of difficulty.

No, a miss is not a blunder in my opinion, in the UConn game the right play was made and the shot gave them a chance to win, if he misses he misses, but the chance to be successful was correct cause the right pass gave him the opportunity to even have a chance.

Exactly, the decisions, dribbling yourself all the way under the basket then passing with no time, are the mistakes. If Lee puts up a runner or attacks the front of the rim and misses those are not mistakes. He knows this he just put himself into a corner and is looking for a way out using spin.

3rd time you’ve changed your story. You don’t have to keep doing this to yourself

Now you’re just being dishonest

Whatever you have to tell yourself
