Maybe I haven't had quite enough coffee yet today and I realize your post has more to do with a general situation with your partner than any specifics............but if a block was called on H, why did H then shoot free throws that tied the game? Wouldn't the sitch have been V on the line shooting with a chance to go up by 3 or 4 pts?
Regardless of the details, a tough sitch and we're probably all a little more aware of what can happen by your sharing of the story. I'm not sure how many times you've worked with this partner, but maybe pre-game becomes even more important when working with our friends/regular partners so that we don't get complacent. I worked a lot of games last season with the same partner and actually found more things that should've been pre-gamed all the time as the season went on.
