Spurs stun Knicks Did anybody see the play that sent the game into O/T? With a few seconds left, the Spurs needed a 3 to tie the game. So they ran a set play. Ginobli dribbled towards the basket which was designed to draw as many Knicks players to him as possible.
So what happens? Almost all the Knicks collapse on him (A 2 POINTER WOULD HAVE DONE THE SPURS NO GOOD)..and left the 3 point line unguarded. Finley scooted to the corner, Ginobli passed the ball out and he had a WIDE OPEN 3 and he sunk it. The Spurs went on to beat the Knicks in OT.
That's the difference between a good coach and Isiah. Do you know what the Knicks would have done in that spot? What they always do: Jamaal Crawford would have gone 1 on 3 and heaved up a 3 pointer. |
