šŸ€ UVA vs Wake Forest, Sat 17 Feb, Noon, ESPN2

And that’s the issue. He’s in his head so bad that at this point I wouldn’t be surprised of he hit a fan with an airball.

Sounds like they aren’t listening coach or you just threw your players under the bus.

I can’t believe the same coach who dragged Bobi Klintmann and his family also threw his player under the bus

If you check out the WF forums… to a poster, they all have said the same thing… Hildreth should’ve been the inbounder but wouldn’t go out of bounce… then hero-balled the crap :poop: out of that last play to the benefit of UVa.

WF looked really confused on the inbounds, they couldn’t make up their mind on who was supposed to be where.

Full comments have what Forbes thought they should have done:

Maybe Forbes should have planned ahead and saved a timeout to get organized.

Not sure why he used his last timeout with 1:06 to go. But credit to our defense for forcing them to burn their next-to-last timeout earlier in the second half when they couldn’t get the ball inbounds. That effort on that random inbounds might have won us the game.

It totally felt like Hildreth went off script for the entire sequence

Nah, that was a heads-up play by Groves to pass it to himself so he could hit Reece for the open three-pointer.

Found out what Tony said that got him a technical foul

True. If you are a golfer and had a stretch where you just couldn’t make that putt, sort of takes the fun out of the game.

Also, he has to be thinking … if I drive to the hoop there and draw contact there is a very real chance I will be fouled and I will have to shoot FTs - and that is not great for the team or me. Has to affect his offensive aggressiveness to some degree. Compare to a 90% shooter who is driving continuously late in a game.

My mind immediately went to a moon shot free throw that hit one of those ceiling fans in Cassell.

Both are great. Just don’t tell anyone from California.

Me and my dad were watching. Dunn went to the line after the offensive board near the end. They went closeup cam from under the basket. My dad said, ā€œNo chance he makes this. He’s scared to death.ā€

His FT shot is weirdly all backspin but it also has to be a mental thing.

I tell bad putters that they need to combine the awful stroke with a misread to knock one in. I am hoping same for Dunn at this juncture. Tell him you are probably going to miss anyway (2 for 9 in Feb with few close ones) so stop worrying and throw it up there and see what happens. See if luck can help right now because skill ain’t.
