In response to AntiUngvar
The bottom line is that this was a very winnable game which slipped away. As much as I love Stefanini’s game, the key play at the end was when he stole the ball and not only failed to finish but committed a foul. That 4 point swing did it. So even though I have occasionally joined the chorus of detractors of Engles, I can’t blame that one on him. What I do fault, of course, is holding the ball for the final shot which turned out to be a contested mid-range jumper instead of calling another 30 second time out and designing a three pint play for Adlesh curling off a screen. So we keep on coming up with new and inventive ways to fail to close out winnable games.
