I know we have two threads devoted to this game already going, but the last play--we still could have won. Mckie was hot and was 30 feet away from the basket. Harris was cold shooting, you can't rely on the refs calling a foul on the final play and the area to Harris' right was wide open.
Why did Bz not call a play where his hottest shooter at least touched the ball? Why not have McKie knife in from the right either along the baseline or down the lane and have Harris dish off after he had drawn the big defender? No one was on his right. A lay up from Mckie could have done it. I have read what some others have said about the long spell during which Cav and Fisher were in and VT caught up. Despite all that, we could have and should have pulled this one out at the end.
Remember James Johnson at the Duke game knifing in to win. But, that was a different coach.
