Oh my goodness!!

I am struggling to define what we are doing in these games with 7-15 point leads down the stretch. Maybe AI or well known strategies of letting the air out of the ball with the clock on your side and running the shot clock down...but daggone it for this team that is NOT working. If we beat the press go ahead and shoot the ball...the guys seem to lose confidence and the whole system, and tenor of the game goes to hell. I was thinking when there were 4 fouls called in the 2nd half with 18:07 left on the clock, and then 2 more before 17 minutes...the 2nd second half would be controlled by the refs...and it was....I'm not saying one way or another, but the game just slowed to a crawl...the refs should stop with ticki tack fouls and when GT flops don't automatically blow the whistle...I'm sure there coach was orchestrating that too....Just ticked off about this game.
