Grizzlies down 1 wasted 23 seconds to take a shot to win instead of going quick. Idiots, awful coaching.
I'm still absolutely floored by this strategic decision.
The Clippers had a foul to give with 23.7 seconds up 1 point and the Grizzlies have the basketball.
The Griz let the clock go to 9 seconds before making a single aggressive dribble and then the Clippers take the foul. Then they let Gay get the ball at the top of the key to take a step back shot to win it with basically no time left.
Given Griffin is on the floor (if he gets the rebound he's likely to miss a FT) and you're only down one how can you decide to go for just the last shot instead of going early?
