Didn't Tony say something along the lines of "if there's that much open floor I would have driven the ball to the basket"? Everything is a game of probabilities, right? Even the best shooters are gonna miss that shot half the time. Drive it in for a higher probability shot. Seems like a no brainer, especially in a last possession scenario.

He told them to take those shots? This isn’t baseball — the coach isn’t giving them signals about whether to shoot or not. The players made decisions as they always do. That’s how basketball works.

He's said in a couple recent press conferences that he wants his players to first look for 3 pointers over 2 pointers. I understand it when your team if team shoots over 35% from 3.

However, he should have emphasized to his team timeouts to get to the rim when we're shooting 18% from 3 against GW.

I would always favor inside shots but sometimes you have to take some threes
