Solving the MU buzzer beating controversyNo, it's not the one that everyone was talking about. I don't have any other angles of the Carlino buzzer-beater, sorry. But Georgetown had a buzzer-beater of their own in the first half that turned out to be a big difference in the game. Check the video below, starting at the 1:40 mark.

That basket was on Juan from what I could tell. If he simply slides over to stop the damn ball, highly unlikely Gtown gets a bucket off of that play. Absolutely terrible defense, no way should a team be able to drive the court for an open shot with that little time left.
And shots like that seem to always come back and bite a team. And it bit us obviously. Breakdowns like that are why we're 2-5.
The thing that killed me was I believe we had THREE team fouls at the time. Can't someone foul him when he starts to get down the court?

I didn't even think of that. If that's correct, even more inexcusable.
Although when you're playing with all of 8 scholarship players, do you really want a guy to add a foul in that situation? Just do what they've been taught since they started playing ball - STOP THE GUY WITH THE BALL!!!
If you have three team fouls, that's a perfect time for anyone with a donut to pick up his first.
