[QUOTE="Emerson Bigguns, post: 1576670, member: 666858"] We have been in that situation twice this season and both times we got a nearly 30 foot heave from within a crowd. The best player should touch the ball but if the defense swarms, someone else should take the shot. You rely on your best player to make a winning play, not necessarily the winning shot. That said, if Larry Bird was on our team, I might feel differently... Ayo has a great chance at a career in the NBA. Larry Bird is one of the greatest basketball players of all time. What makes good sense for Larry Bird doesn't necessarily make good sense for everyone else. We have to play better situational basketball in close games. [/QUOTE]
