VA Tech just played the worst 30 seconds of basketball

Post by King Crimson »

down 1, with the ball and 30 seconds left. they get 3 shot clocks (UNC fouls), 3 full possessions and the only shot they "get off" is a tied ball/block by Hansborough that gives UNC the ball and the W. probably a foul, but Tech gets away with a carry earlier in the sequence....and almost throw the ball away twice while ineptly trying to run a play. airball on a 3 attempt to tie at the buzzer.

way to go Seth. way to steal defeat from the jaws of victory.

It seemed Va Tech was more interested in running clock the last few minutes of the game than trying to actually run an offense and score. Usually a recipe for defeat!

Sounds extremely familiar. Having to hear him complain on ESPN this morning was classic.

that's becoming something of a mid-March tradition in its own right. :wink:

You don't have to tell me about it. I had to hear that crap when he was here. It's actually quite humorous now to hear his spin doctoring this time of year.
