    that play was drawn up by brooks, adelman actually wanted a pick and roll, but AB was worried he'd be doubled, so he told him he should take it one on one..

    if brooks is driving you need to put 3 point shooters out there to keep the double away, budinger should have been in there

    if the play worked, maybe we'd all cheer for adelman's decision.

    but how often does ab get the call under the hoop, really? not to mention it was the last second play on the road. i think adelman should've taken this into account. a jumper (by whoever) would be better imo.

    And if the jumper misses then you get folks whining about not taking it to the rack and forcing the action. Make the ref call the foul. Well, I honestly think that what Aaron did gets called in most games. This game was one of those upside down backwards games where fouls werent called and non-fouls were called. Shame on Rick for not realing that during the 20 second timeout to set it up. :p


    Edit: Remember everyone whining about T-Mac taking jumpshots at the end of games instead of going to the rack. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
