[QUOTE="doowink, post: 1576106, member: 8085"] To me the key to the game was the final 3 minutes....I believe we were up 2 and needed a couple of stops defensively, which we got, but then we went down and either turned the ball over or didn't get a good shot....as a team you need to realize that at that point in the game you need to value the ball a little more...especially after you've made a defensive stand and have the opportunity to extend your lead and put the game out of reach....but we didn't value the ball our last 5-6 possessions....didn't get good looks....we're a good team....a great team would have nailed the coffin shut during those 5-6 possessions and found a way to win by 6-8 points [/QUOTE]
