[QUOTE="Bailey, post: 1247096, member: 10684"] I see a lot of posters calling for this type of play in game winning situations, and it's contrary to conventional wisdom. Generally when it comes to game deciding plays at the end of regulation, refs are going to swallow their whistle. I can't immediately find the Michael Jordan quote, but this is why you saw so many of his game winners come via the midrange jumper - he knew the probability of getting hacked at the rim with no whistle was likely. Also, a Malcolm jumper at the elbow is a shot we should take every time if we can get it. That's his bread and butter. THAT BEING SAID; no clue why they sent Finke up for a high ball screen when Malcolm had his defender isolated up top. Let Malcolm beat that guy - don't draw another defender to the area. Spread everybody out and let Malcolm create space to get a good look. [/QUOTE]
