Coming in on partners call

[Nevadaref]

I recall the play quite well. There was 15.9 seconds left in the game. Xavier was inbounding following a 3pt goal by Pitt and leading 69-66. The pass was made towards the Pitt bench and was tipped by the Pitt defender. It went OOB on the sideline into the Pitt bench. The C, Antonio Petty, came in from near the end of the scorer's table with a strong signal in favor of Pitt. John Cahill then came over from the Trail position on the end line and spoke with Petty, who changed his call and pointed the other way.

Cahill got the call right, and in my opinion it will cause him to advance to next weekend.

Exactly.

No one will remember that the C called one way only to have the T provide info to get it right....and they did get it right. The replays clearly showed that they got it right.

If they didn't get it right and Pitt made a 3 pointer to tie and eventually won, it may have become the most talked about call of the weekend....it wasn't even a close call, the C was just not in the right spot to see it (and was probably in as good of a spot as they could have been...closer wouldn't have improved the angle).


Great teamwork.

The particular angle we had from our livingrooms was also very good as we saw it pretty much from the same angle as Cahill. I thought the call was pretty obvious from his angle and he did a good job bringing it to Petty's attention.

One for the good guys!
