Watch the lead. He keeps waving off the basket as he exits the gym. He probably still kept waving it off in the shower after the game and in the car on the way home. He may still be doing it.

Great video. Thanks Freddy.

Bad Axe Hatchets. What a great town name, and high school mascot, hopefully not offensive to any axes and hatchets.

The city's unusual name dates to the time of its settlement. While surveying the first state road through the Huron County wilderness in 1861, Rudolph Papst and George Willis Pack made camp at the future site of the city and found a much-used and badly damaged axe. At Pack's suggestion, Papst used the name “Bad Axe Camp”.

Mechanically, they had an interesting alignment.

The lead was on the court, out to the side. In this play, I can see the advantage of that setup. There is going to be no drive and no secondary defender cutting it off. Perhaps they felt this would give them a better view of any potential tip since that was all that could happen.

The center was initially at the FT line extended but drifted really far down by the time the ball bounced off the rim. I think that put him out of position to have the best look at the ultimate attempt. Why so low?
