When it comes down to crunch time

[billmontgomery10]

There is one player on this team who should absolutely never handle the ball. Never. We all know who he is, how come MA doesn't?

90% FT Shooter

[lookawayquick]

Don't get it. Makes poor decisions but He is a good FT shooter.

[WhatsitHOGabout]

I can think of 3 players that fit your description.

[010HogFan]

I don't like the ball in his hands...but he obviously has some voodoo luck in those moments.

[billmontgomery10]

Turnover prone and hitting about 10% from the field late in games.

Portis and Qualls need to finish up every game.

Beard needs to be getting all of his minutes from here on out, and Babb needs to be getting the 2-guard minutes. High hopes have not panned out for those two upperclassmen.

If they played halfway decent defense we wouldn't need the last seconds to try and pull out a win.

Which one is going to dribble?

Somebody has to miss the shot so they can follow it up with the buzzer beater tip-in.

Makes sense, let's replace 45+%/91% 3pt/FT shooter.

If the game is tied or the other team is leading then he shouldn't be in the game regardless of FT%. If we are leading and we know the other team is looking to foul then that is another story. If he is going to be in the game under the former scenario then he doesn't need to be handling the ball. It should be Beard. Just my $.02

I will say he did make a couple of key plays late with one being an "and 1". Got to give him that.

i don't like madden bringing the ball up the floor either, but without his 18 Pt's. tonight we lose

I think they can pretty much count on the missed shot part!

[k.c.hawg]

Yeah I think I'm gonna bitch about a guy drawing the defense to him and getting a shot up in close proximity of the rim with 1.5 left that allows our 6'10" rebounder to get to the rim for the finish.

Why ride on Madden tonight?
There's plenty of nights he deserves it - don't see it tonight, though.
If we had lost it wouldn't have been because of Madden's mistake - it would have been the boneheaded foul by Portis with 2 seconds left.

Y'all are tripping all over the "no player bashing rule."
