Crunch time minutes

[PonyFan32]

Now that we have seen 2 games of McMurray, of our top 6 players, who plays the last 5 minutes of close games in conference and who sits, assuming no foul trouble?

Ben or Whitt

I’d say everyone’s favorite answer. It depends. Probably go with the hot hands between Gu, Whitt and McMurray.

Depends on who we are playing and who has the hot hand. About the only one I don't see taken out would be Shake. That is the fun of having these interchangeable players...even the big guy handles the ball pretty well.

Not sure McMurray is the closer due to shot selection. I think you want the cool heads in there at closing time, which would be both Gu and Shake, with Whitt at point. Mcmurray is the guy you bring off the bench to make sure you build up a lead going into the last 5 min,

I am very happy to have McMurray on the team. We lost the game in the NCAA tournament against USC because nobody on the team wanted to take the last shot so Shake had to by default because he is our point guard. At least now we have someone that wants that burden in crunch time or any time for that matter.

Better question:

Who does the other team THINK is taking the last shot?

Bwahhhhaaaaahaaaahaaaa!

[Charleston Pony]

everyone is a threat to score but McMurray is most likely to want the ball

If I recall, in the USC tournament game the argument was between players wanting to take the shot not that nobody wanted to take it. Sterling was calling for it and Shake wanted it.

Sure could have used Nic Moore in that game

We did once before and it didn’t work

Nic had two shots against UCLA to win it.

Shake got a good look. Would have loved Semi to get the shot, but it was a good luck. Would prefer not to be in that losing situation by not giving up an open corner 3 to a hot shooter.

The most frustrating thing is that needing a “last shot” should never have happened in either NCAA game.
We HAD those games and gave them away.

Seems like Janks should have used a timeout earlier in the half
