And then he has another bad night unfortunately. His inconsistency is why he’s not a legit level starter.
Yeah, I think he's a really good backup wing option who can start a game here and there if needed, but that's his ideal role -- 7th man. Good value on the signing, but he's just not a night in, night out starter for a serious team.
Regardless of that.... WTF was that play? You are f***ing tied with 11 seconds (or whatever) to go and the ball and you design a play for a Troy 3? DAHELL?
Much like the game winning shot (as it fortunately turned out) that Reaves hit from similar location last year and was blatantly fouled on with no call.
He should have stepped to his right and pump faked, he would have been shooting 3 free throws. Hardaway had committed hard on that close out, there wasn't anyway he would have been able to avoid running Troy over.
Troy has been shooting 3s well enough to get the call on that from who was on the floor. If that was even the "call" and not a second option.
He played some very solid defense down the stretch and hit a couple big threes, had a good game for sure.
