... or Cruyff's death yesterday, but my view is the game is 40 minutes.  It's not 39 minutes and 53 seconds.  You only get 40 minutes to play in one of the greatest sports on one of the biggest stages in the world.  You should play every single one of those seconds with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind.  Savor every single moment.  It was a great shot and a great win.  Letting the shot clock run out would have been more disrespectful to the beauty of the game.

You're a hell of a coach, Coack K, one of the all time greats, but try disciplining your own players before calling out players from other teams. 

You didn't seem to have much of a problem with Grayson Allen blatantly tripping multiple players this year.

I do not understand the issue. There is 9 seconds left with 4 on the shot clock. Are you suppose to let the shot clock expire and turn over the ball? If there were 15 seconds left would it make a difference. 20?30? When is it okay to shoot. Coach K and everyone else should move on.

This is so ridiculous! If anyone actually watched the game, you would know that Oregons shot clock was going to expire with time left in the game. All this kid did was hoist up a low percentage shot from WAY downtown and it happened to go in. Would people have preferred Oregon to run a set play or to just let the shot clock expire without shooting at all? Grow up and accept defeat like a man. If coach K wants to dispense wisdom have him talk to his own player, Greyson Allen, how has been caught tripping multiple opponents on purpose this season and didn't even shake everyone's hands after the game. Sorry for this rant but this is such a stupid thing for people to be upset about/ questioning

Most people let the shot clock run out and thats what he shouldve done. Theres nothing wrong with the greatest mens college basketball coach trying to help out other players. And for the Allen incident he did address it and tell him to control his negative emotions. Did you want him to say Allen you are a bad player i hate you and your energy? Cmon now person smh.
