I agree with the OP. We didnt take a timeout till 2 min left in the game. Meanwhile, Duke was running up and down the court, extending the lead. Call a T.O. Give the boys a break, draw up a play, and reset the D.

I didnt understand not using them.

The one time I was asking for a TO was when Maymon couldn't find anybody with the 5sec call on. He eventually threw the ball away when trying to make an across court pass near mid court. That was one I would have liked CM or JM use a TO.

I have OP on ignore so don't even know what he said. But, they get 2 billion TV timeouts a game, so they had plenty of timeouts used. As far as calling a TO to stop Dukes runs, there was no stopping them. Duke scored off of every time out in the game, would have been no exception. Good for the guys anyways, helps them play through adversity.

We were playing well either way, we just couldn't buy a basket. A TO wasn't going to help that any.

lol.... you saw Duke using time outs to stop our runs...? Wonder if that had anything to do with them stopping our runs?

This was the one that made me start the thread. I was like call a time out!! It was like they were afraid to call them or something.

to the homers... calm down, IÂ’m not calling for Martin's head or anything... IÂ’m literally just asking them to call a time out to prevent a turnover.

This is just playing Monday Morning Quarterback. Calling timeouts to stop runs is a philosophy thing with a coach. Phil Jackson doesn't do it; do you hear a lot of people criticizing him? No.

Why call a time out? Coach K would have just put In a press or an after possession play and scored?

Why bother if that's all you got?
Team is well coached.

I agree you shouldn't end the game with 4 T.O.'s, however, I'm not sure it would have made much of a difference. What would have made a difference is if Maymon had hit 1/2 of his point blank shots right under the goal during the game.

Great, so not only does Dooley = Saban because Saban makes mistakes too, now Martin = Phil Jackson because Phil doesn't call timeouts either? I wonder if the fact that Phil usually has the most talented/deep team in the NBA has anything to do with his timeout philosophy?

How's delusional land this time of year?

A bit of a stretch comparing Martin to Phil Jackson.

Timeouts left on the table in basketball mean nothing. We hung with duke. You don't call a TO just to call one. If CM calls one, and duke comes out on a 10-0 run, what purpose does it serve.
You get tv timeouts and the ones Duke called. That was plenty.

really? I wanted them to call them all consecutively at a random point in the game.

How do you know this would happen? How do you know Tennessee wouldn't come out on a 10-0 run?

So you don't think Maymon should have called a t/o when he was pressured near the half court line in the later part of the game instead of making a poor pass which resulted in a turnover and points by Duke?

Maybe he should have, but that's not on CM.
