The Patented Stans prevent offense
- Thread starter AzzurriDawg4

I guess Cal called a bad play on UK's last possession of regulation too (or did we just play fantastic defense in spite of Stansbury's poor coaching).<div>

Azzuri I like you most of the time but to blame this game or a crucial part of the game on Stans is horrible. I have been against Stans for a long time, but calling a TO isn't a bad idea. The refs were calling BS fouls everytime a ball got swatted away so he told Dee to drive and maybe we can draw a foul. Stans coached a good game.
I am talking about when we went up 7 with 3 minutes left.
Our next 3 possessions were all horrible and all dictated by the head coach. He tried to sit on the lead.
1st possession we ran that idiotic weave with no intention of getting an open look... until the clock put us in a bad position.
Next 2 possessions, we had 3 players stand in the corner of the half, behind the timeline... until the clock put us in a bad position.
Our offense was clicking up until that point. I am confident that if we would have gone down there on those 3 possessions and played like we had been playing, we would have come away with at least one basket.
I agree that Stans coached a good game up until that point. I saw a lot of things on offense that were really good. Our motion to the basket was excellent, some great back door cuts, Dee was money going to the rack, good passing, very few pull-up 3's. We looked good. However, at the 3 minute mark, we put a big pair of handcuffs on all of that productivity, played to their strengths and lost the game.
