Wacky finish in Butler

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Close to the game line.

With 7 seconds left, Detroit hit a 3 to take the lead, but it was waved off b/c it was after the shot clock expired.

At the horn, down 3, Detroit hits a shot at the top of the key. Guy shifted his feet, though, and it was a 2.

Butler wins by 1.

Whewww , I had Detroit +1'.

 

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Very fortunate, boilermaker. Nice job.

i was on butler -2 and when i saw that butler made two ft's to go up 3 with 5 seconds left, i assumed i'd lose b/c figured butler would foul before the shot. when i saw the final score i assumed that was what happened. how gratifying to know the end was much freakier.

why would you lose under that scenario? detroit would obviously miss 2nd ft on purpose, plus they have to make the first it is a bad beat - period-

 

[Evilhomer]

I'm happy, I took Butler -1 2nd half so it works out.

probably right sun tzu. thought furman was a bad beat also the way they folded in the endgame at home. really expected them to pull out the win in the close game scenaerio. hopefully i'll pick up a lucky win or two before the day's done.
