Oklahoma prep player makes game-winning shot ... on wrong basket

How is it not dumb? You catch the ball game is over, you let it drop game continues. Instictive is a copout for stupid, before every pitch you should know the situation.

 

Last guy who touched the ball? That's how it gets credited in hockey.

 

Here's the first video I found of it.

Damn, Hondo. You must have been the left fielder. Your post was as dumb as that play.

 

How are saying this wasn't dumb? Did I miss something? Guy takes an inbounds pass, dribbles around and shoots the ball in his own basket to lose the game??

If I were a teammate, that guy would have had it coming. If I were the guy, I'd never set foot in that school again.

 

Whether it was dumb has nothing to do with the quite commonly held desire that you go away and never come back.

 

This sounds kinda dumb. :

 

Different sport, but, here you go:

Watch the video shithead.

He didn't "dribble around," he got the inbounds pass in stride, took one dribble and went up for the shot.

Just a brain fart. Stupid, yeah, but people do stupid things.

I'd go back and assign about 20% of the blame to the coach for even calling a play which involved the ball going anywhere near the opposing basket.

With 3-some seconds to play and a 1-point lead, you want to get the ball inbounds, get the clock running, and keep the ball 80 feet from the opposing basket if possible.

The defense is gonna be in overplay denial, fronting everybody; just toss it over their heads into YOUR frontcourt, touch the ball in bounds, let the clock run out.

 

Maybe your reading comprehension is low, Mark, but you didn't call it a dumb play, a view others have dealt with before. You called the kid a "dumb ass." An adult calling a teenager that they don't know who made a mistake in a high-pressure situation a dumb ass pretty much tells me all I need to know about that adult. You're a loser. And to try to make it sound like you said something different than what you said means not only are you a loser, but you're not even man enough to deal with your own actions.

 

Ditto. Deal with it.

 

Nobody wants deskslave to run away and never come back.
