Down by 1 with 12 seconds to go and you have 1 timeout. College is different sos you cant just call the timeout and get to take it out at half court, but fine you run the ball past half court then call a timeout and draw up a play. Moore crossed the half court with 8 seconds to go, call the freaking timeout. But no he lets it run and Moore put up a horrible shot.
This is the RJ/Zion issue all over again. 2 times that year K didnt call timeouts to draw up a play to get Zion the ball. He just let RJ do his own thing and RJ blew both the Gonzaga game and the tournament game. You had freaking Zion Williamson in his peak athletic prime, get him the damn ball.
Paolo had 20 points on 6/11 shooting. Get the dude the damn ball! Or at minimum call the damn timeout and draw up a play and use him as a decoy or something. Just what a freaking joke.
just so incredibly frustrating. watching paolo getting completely ignored by his teammates for long stretches - and it's not as if he wasn't making himself available - while k just sat there and watched it all unfold. can't imagine how frustrating that must be for a duke fan, especially during a loss.
And his two alley oop passes down the stretch were perfect. Having a guy that tall able (and willing) to throw those passes inside is a huge competitive advantage.
