If CJH was outcoached, then every coach that ever loses a game is outcoached.

We've seen XCMD get outcoached many, many times....today didn't look like that.

You could say that, by outcoached I meant clock management/ roster management he was taken to school still a great game and great play by the bball Blazers. Yes a lucking three kept them in the game but not fouling is a what then? Just saw little things NM did to show how well they're coached.

Uncle Blazer is accusing me of calling a loss. Now I'm be accused of jinxing them.

Haase out coached.??? You are an idiot.

Yep, and the creator of this thread is also so........

Fouling on that play (which some have said Haase actually told them to do) is no guarantee against that team.

They hit the first, miss the second on purpose and their giant down low gets the tip in...same result

Opposing player starts his shot just as he realizes he's about to be fouled and heads to the line, to tie if he misses, to win if he hits...same or worse result

We foul, player hits both free throws and they get a 5 second call or turnover on the in bound and score quickly...we lose

There are way too many possible scenarios in basketball to say that stopping the clock to give them a free chance to score is the best decision.

Other than Swing, who is a defensive liability lately, what would you have done differently with the roster? Frankly, I think this is the best coaching we have seen in a long time for the Green and Gold.

Much rather committed the foul. One reason for pressure of being on the line mixed with him possibly having dead legs Williams put on a show. Put Foz and Menhinti right at the basket with Ruck and I like my chances against a tip drill. As far the roster not much best group of Blazers I've seen since the XCMD paper championship team of Waltchan Dekinvaden or whatever stupid name somebody gave them on this site. Probably the best team since the XCMA years and I would've added another big or a true pg the same thing Im hoping for, for next season.
