.45 sec Shot Clock is it time TSSAA and TN get one?

I have nothing against playing fast but I have also watched too many teams shoot themselves out of a ballgame. Players need to know especially in the fourth quarter when it is time to take a great shot rather than an average shot.

 

I have watched teams with double digit leads lose games because of this lack of discipline.

If teams are losing double digit leads in the fourth period it's often likely because they can't shoot free throws.

You would think that but no.... this was teams that was firing up threes and not making them. Don't get me wrong. I am all for shooting threes but not after making just one pass. LOL. In the fourth quarter with a lead...you don't always need a three.

 

I guess I am more in favor of getting the ball to the rim with a lead especially in the latter portions of the fourth quarter. Everyone has different philosophies which is making this thread interesting.

Point guards lose leads in the fourth quarters. Thats why Catholic is near impossible to beat if they get the 4th Q lead because Luke Smith is legit PG.

 

He smoked GCA last 8 minutes and secured the victory. In fact he toyed with us. Made me sick but it was a thing of beauty to watch him run his team and the game.
