If L is in position, pinches and posts, we’re probably not even having this discussion right now.

By the way....a third place game? That’s so antiquated and lame.

I agree with those saying this is a secondary defender and, as a result, is the L's call. He should have closed down to be in better position, but it was his defender to call. The defender came from within the lane and only stepped out at the last moment.

3rd place game? Oregon has them and even a 4th place game. They award 1st to 6th places.
