Eventhough you don't care about VT-FSU (It was a bit hard to watch, I'll admit), a VT player was fouled, but also suffered, I believe, severe leg cramping and stayed down and was attended to for a several minutes before it was decided he could not attempt his two free throws. Announcers said FSU coach picked a vt player from bench (a 60%'er) to shoot the shots. He missed both, leading to FSU's last second game winner. Are you saying in this sitch, only one of the other 4 on floor should have shot these? Also, at what time, or how long does an injured player have to sit on the court and try to recover from the injury to be able to still go to line? The injured/removed vt player was a mid-80's ft shooter, so obviously they would have liked him there if at all possible.
