[Old School Hound]

Oh JP, the last thing in the world I want to do is start your weekend off badly!!!

My point is simply this, if a team is ahead by 3 and shooting 2 free throws with 1.4 seconds left; then get beat!!  It ain't the clock keeper's fault.

I had a couple similar experiences when I used to coach.  So, I ran the young'uns ragged the next several practices, then had them shoot free throws when they were dog tired.  Practice was over when each one hit 8 straight free throws.  That was a long day!!!


Fun fact:  This was a long long time ago, and the elementary school did not have a gym.  So both boys and girls practiced on the blacktopped ball court located outside.  This particular night, when practice was finally over, I had parents circling the court with their head lamps on.  I'm such a bitch!! 

This isn't the 1920's anymore.  Kids and parents won't tolerate that stuff. They'd just flip you off and stick in their Air Pods and get lost in their rap music. I think the B-word is wrong. The D-word is more like it... Dinosaur!   lol

It absolutely can be. If a team A is up with 1 second left and a clock keeper allows team B extra time to score to tie/win. I don't care if team A was up 20 with a minute left they still win if not for extra time allowed by the clock keeper.

I obviously agree with Jet here. Yes, Corbin did themselves no favors at all in this game. They didn't close it out like they should have. Yet, they were up 3 with 1 second left. The scoreboard operator and referees allowed a player to catch a ball, turn after he caught it, dribble the ball, then let it fly in 1.0 second. That defies the law of physics!!! It does not defy the law of Laurel County clock operators, however.  Even after all the missed free throws, Corbin still had the game won were it not for the extra time given to Cole Jervis shoot a 52 -foot shot to tie the game.
