Hey BJ, whatever it is, it worked.

Actually it was taken once and made once. Are you proposing some sort of multiverse theory? If so, I'm interested.

Nah it's just called heart. When someone is committed, anything is possible. There is no such thing as luck. Although it's obvious, it seem that we all need to be reminded from time to time. What I've seen so far is a group of boys who have heart. The shot that Reid had made is just a great example of how memories are made from the game.

Did I say anywhere it wasn't a spectacular play? I was answering Coach BJ's question Radford played good defense on that possession. I'm positive McCay would have preferred taking shot going to the rim or from the elbow I'm also positive he will take the win

Woah there, calm down cowboy. I was referring to more than just the previous statement. Just take a deep breath and you'll be alright. Also that wasn't really good defense in my humble opinion. Even though the defender's hand was up in front of Reid's face, he wasn't close enough to make Reid incapable to see the length of the hoop. Reid's probability of making that shot was still decent in my opinion.

After analyzing a couple more angles again, I agree, the defense was outstanding. I guess I was more thinking about changing one aspect of how they attacked the play

That's sort of the definition of good defense.
The only thing he could have done better was deny the ball andbsteal the inbound pass. But that would have been difficult

I'd of thought that if A.C. was the primary read on that inbounds plsy, but Dawson was (hence the cross screen by Reid and the flash cut). If he went for the pass, he would have needed to go over top the cross screen instead of underneath it as he read on the video. Of course that raises the risk of a foul call if his timing isn't Swiss perfect
