Shaq on the controversial timeout

[Freak]

Duh, Uh I thought they were out of timeouts. Duh, uh then I realized they were out after they called that one.

:banghead:

Way to be in the game Shaq. You boy Wade had to carry your overgrown ass down the stretch.

 

[GAVol]

Shaq is definitely a shadow of his former self. This is Wade's team.

I thought they were in trouble on that last possession. Wade took the ball so far in the backcourt. Then he was double teamed and I didn't think he could get around both of those guys.

Forget Shaq, what about the intellectual giant that CALLED the timeout?

Why should Shaq be aware of how many timeouts the other team has?

I don't think it was Josh Howard's fault. Avery Johnson clearly signalled emphatically that he wanted a timeout called, he just wasn't clear at first that he wanted it called after the 2nd free throw in order to advance the ball. In the scheme of things, it probably didn't matter. It was going to be a desperation shot either way, just from closer range.

He shouldn't so why would he be carrying on to his coach that they were out of timeouts. I just think he is clueless all the way around.

I don't know. They had, what, 1.9 seconds? That's plenty of time to get a good shot if they would have been able to advance the ball with a timeout.

I didn't realize they had quite that much time left. You're right, that's plenty of time to do a lot of things.

I think that's right.

That was some funny ish. It reminded me of the Chris Webber timeout. The look on Avery Johnson's face was priceless.
