I've never liked double technicals . They're like off-setting "flags" in football. Penalize the team at fault.

Since both players were at fault you can rest easy

The best shot is an open shot. Plus the threat of mid-range pull-ups spaces the defense better for the 3s and layups.

I don’t think you can build an offense around it anymore, but your offense is going to be better if you can and will take and make that shot.
The vast majority of Michael Jordan's highlights are awesome lay-ups and dunks, but he was most deadly with the midrange jumpshot. We've got guys capable, who've done it before but for some reason only want to shoot the 3 or drive to the basket when everyone else is considerably taller than them.
Michael Jordan averaged 37 points per game at age 24. He made 11 threes the entire season.

The game has changed. Try to keep up.
Please. You're proving my point.

Also, the game hasn't changed for the better, and Jordan in his prime would dominate this game much more so than he did back then.

I disagree with the first, and agree wholeheartedly with the second.

What's any of this got to do with Kenneth Copeland, metal guitarist Andre Antunes, and the imminent demise of hair restoration products?

You gotta get up early in the morning to get something like that past me

So, there really is some kind of strange metaphysical connection. Good to know.

If you haven't seen the punch, as TF likes to say, "I've got it on video!"

Coach McKay seems to be thinking the refs have not been very a good up to this point. There was a pretty obvious goal tend by NMSU and another call that went against us that gave the ball to NMSU when on replay it was clear it went off their guy. Combine that with the ticky tack crap they called on JV and Rode even after what happened to Shiloh. The game prior had an interview but I never saw it get posted. I heard though that McKay basically came out and blamed part of the loss on the refs.

Are you talking about the turnaround elbow to the face that Porter took in the Jax game? Forceful elbow to the face w/position. Call goes against Porter. Pivotal 3 point play late in game.
