Re: Why don\'t coaches understand fundamental math?

If you'd like another example. Consider a basketball game in the bonus with 30 seconds left on the clock. The team with possession of the ball is trailing by 4. Does anyone else on this forum think the best shot to take (given a team of standard skill distribution) is a 3-pointer?

It's too early to risk a 3 point shot with 30 seconds to go . It's much better to take the best shot available during your possession and hope that you can make it within 2 points . Sometimes , the best shot available is a 3 point shot and you should go ahead and take the risk .
