Coach Fizdale was really reaming out Kevin “School of Hard” Knox there after that last three. I have no idea what constitutes “good basketball” and my only judge of success is if a shot went in, so everything looked fine to me, but Knox must have really messed something up for his coach to be so peeved.
There’s a time and place for such remonstrations, and I’m just not sure if after a clutch game-tying late-game shot by a rookie is one of those times. Don’t you risk players tuning out with such behavior? I’ll shut up now; I have no idea what I’m talking about because human emotions are a total mystery to me.
Adding to the list of things I am totally ignorant of is Knox himself. I haven’t been paying much attention to what he’s been doing or how good he’s supposed to be, so this performance is a fun surprise. His jumper looks wet! Was his jumper supposed to be that wet? I don’t know, but I’m having fun finding out!
