Maybe, I'm watching the wrong basketball games, but through my unscientific eyes, teams are much more likely to get a makeable shot out of a late game scramble situation than a set play. The most recent example being Miami's disasterous possession after a TO (BTW, WF took the timeout to set its defense and shut Miami down) when WF took a late lead last Tuesday.
Duke was out of timeouts. If not, Duke would've called one to set its defense before WF inbounded the ball with 8 seconds left. As it worked out, WF got a better shot, Chaundee's chipee on the left low block, than any play that could've been drawn up during a TO (FWIW, Brown would've scored easily had Hoard not bumped Brown as the ball was being rebounded). Seems like basketball fans get a warped sense of how teams typically score in game ending situation based on Hoosiers and the picket fence play.
There is a reason that UVA leads the nation in defense every year. It's really hard to get a good shot against a set defense. Not as hard when teams are scrambling.
There are so many reasonable things to criticize the current coaching staff about, but think that WF did about as good as it could've considering WF was down 3 with 13 seconds left. Got a quick score on a quick 2 which BC took right to the hoop (and almost got a foul call). Forced a very lucky turnover, and then got two shots to win in the final 3 seconds. Hard to do better than that.
