I've heard the last minute or 2 of a tight especially important game referred to as "nut cuttin time". (apologies to our female board members). While it is important to be dead on during these crucial ticks, if the spot was still somewheres in the backcourt, 25 feet won't be the difference. The pass would have been a little longer but the clock would have still started at the touch. The shot would have been from a little farther out. How long does it really take for a HS player to travel 25 feet? Did he actually shoot at the buzzer or would there have been time for him to dribble 25 feet farther had the original spot been farther back? Lots and lots of variables here but it still boils down to DON'T FOUL THE SHOOTER!
