Coach tried to say it was the name of their play, "3-2-1, because that's how the players are set up on the floor" I said, "Okay then the T is for having six players on the floor." He said, "We dont have six players on the floor!" I said, "So how could they set up as 3-2-1?" He was still scratching his head over that one as the players were all leaving the gym. Gotta admit, I thought it was one of the lamest excuses I'd ever heard.

If the game is a blow out in the last couple of seconds why would you want to prolong it by giving a "T" and then having to admin. it, seems pointless.
