Mike Brown made a critical mistake here and I have to call it out.
Running Hack-a-Robinson when you've got a double digit lead? Smart. Clock stops, you extend it. I get it.
But once it goes under two minutes, you cannot send Mitchell Robinson up to set a ball screen. The moment he's involved in the action, he's no longer away from the play. That means the defense can foul him freely and it's just a standard foul. No penalty. No protection.
The away-from-the-play foul rule only kicks in when a defender deliberately fouls someone with no involvement in what's happening around the ball. Once Robinson is the screener, he IS the play. It's free game.
Coach Nick broke this down perfectly. You gotta know your personnel and the rulebook well enough to keep Robinson out of those situations entirely in the final two minutes. Reggie even flagged it on the broadcast in real time.
This is exactly the kind of late-game detail that separates good coaching decisions from costly ones. #shorts
