Anybody know why Terry was out there on the final defensive possession guarding a much bigger guy who just happened to hit the game winning shot over the much shorter Terry.  Nice job there Doc.  This is like Marquis Daniels guarding Horford in the playoffs late in the game on two consecutive possessions.  What an idiot.

It was a terrible shot that simply went in, the defensive assignment had very little to do with it.

I would beg to differ.  Belinelli's tough turnaround shot only had a chance because he had a big height advantage to get the shot off.  A similarly sized guy, either Pierce or Lee would have made the shot nearly impossible.

It's not even the result that matters, that of Doc not taking out Terry on defense and Terry's man hitting a shot over him.  It's the coaching failure for leaving him out there.  If Terry is out there, he should be guarding a small guy like Robinson and if Doc didn't like that matchup, he shouldn't be in the game.  Leaving one of your worst and smaller defenders in the game after a timeout is just stupid.

what really sucked is DVRing the game with an extra 30 minutes of time and having the game go into OT and missing the last 1:16 of OT!!!!!

Terry was playing very good D for the entire fourth quarter and overtime.  I have no issue with him being in the game there.

It wasn't a turnaround... he was falling to the floor and did a desperation shot, which luckily went in for him.
