If you think having the ball down 1 with 8 seconds left is more like 30% to win, then it's 70% vs 48%, so a bigger deal but not insane

Mostly it's really bad bc dude was a good FT shooter

So assuming 30% chance to win with the ball, it's 64% * .3 + 4% * .9 + 32% * .65 = 44%

so 44% vs 70% assuming a 30% chance to score with the ball

All of the other picks were automatic
Or Vandy was never equipped to guard NWs elite guards and wings

Let's call it 35%

So, 64% * 35% + 4% * 90% + 32% * 67.5% = 48%

A 26% equity drop based off a single play seems like a pretty serious disaster

A fraction of what missing or making any of those shots would be worth

It's in the same ballpark as "deciding to shoot a 30 footer instead of driving to the bucket"

Color guy says whoever scores the most points will win the game and if they trade baskets then he's not sure what will happen.
