Big night for The Jruth![]()
2 minutes left. 5 point game. Crunchtime.
Thad gets caught in a no man's land switch on a high screen (shocker). Beasley ends up driving by Thad straight to the cup for an easy two.
Next possession: Dudley dribbles Richardson into a screen, Thad caught in switch/no man's land again. Dudley drives around him all the way to the cup for a drive and dish for 2 easy points.
Suddenly a 1 point game.
This is the bigger reason why we were bad in crunch time last year.....the defense was even worse than the offense.
The next Suns possession, for some reason the Sixers ran an automatic switch on Beasley (instead of simply playing sound pick and roll defense). He then drove around Lavoy easily and drew the foul and two FT's (which were luckily missed).
It's the same crunch time story over and over. If Beasley hadn't choked at the charity stripe, we maybe lose the game. Collins should not coach the last 8 minutes of professional basketball games.

I can live with that if it's Jrue in that situation being defended by the Suns. The big problem with our mid range pullups the last 2 seasons (other than there was too many of them in crunch time) was that it wasn't Jrue taking the shot.
ET seemed to be expecting some help on the drive....but yeah, ET did blow that defense at the end.
