I wrote my last post before I left for work, and in the car, I was immediately thinking I fucked up, by leaving something out.

There is no "right" or "wrong" here. In basketball, the saying goes, "it's not WHAT you teach, it's how you teach it." Boobie is not wrong here, but the OP asked what I thought about Calipari's decisions (or lack thereof) and I personally didn't find fault in them.

I asked a coaching forum for their thoughts and I'll post it here when I get enough responses. I'm guessing it's going to be 50/50.

Last thought:

I've watched a lot of basketball. That's an understatement. I can't remember one instance where a team used the "foul when up by 3 strategy." I've NEVER seen it done. I hear announcers ponder as the team goes to timeout, but I can't remember one time where it was actually used.
