Can anyone tell me why my man Travis was not in the game in the last three or four minutes when his three-point threat and his defensive and rebound abilities would have helped?  Kudos to TJ and Jon Smith for playing very good games and to Treg for his best game as a Bobcat.  While Bean did come through we some key threes down the stretch, it wasn't quite enough to make up for his sordid passing during the whole game, IMHO.  All and all, a very disheartening loss. 

Just home in cincy after the game..JC also said he was going for two possessions the last 39 seconds.  that's a head scratcher to me.  I agree why wouldn't wilkins and kellogg be options #1 and #2 at the end to tie.  To have Bean and TJ take those shots is disheartening.  I'm sure the buffs couldn't have been happier.

Wilkins was on the bench the final 4 minutes.  I saw the the assistant repeatedly mouth the words "Travis" to JC over that time only to be ignored.  A big mistake, IMO.

But this one isn't on the coach.  Maurice was a total non-factor; looked intimidated all night.  Would rather have seen Campbell in there is Mo was just going to hoist threes and refuse to attack the basket.

Recipe for success against the Bobcats: get physical on Mo and pressure our point guard.

Going for two possessions makes perfect sense to me.  Not trying to chuck up a three with that much time left on the clock also makes sense.  Two points extends the game and is the right choice every time unless there's a darn good look from three point land.
