I think that is the smartest move. Ant can take a last second shot way easier then KAT and get a good look. You don't want to leave time, so if an action is run for KAT it probably leaves time for Indy to win or tie.
Jesus. You have Karl-Anthony Towns and a hot Malik Beasley and your best play for a game-winning bucket is to let your 19-year old rookie go one-on-one? That's awful.

I didn't like the shot. Why not drive hard into the paint and at least try to get a foul or kick out. We were tied, not down by 3.
You need to run the clock out though. It was the smart play.
You seem to be more worried about the clock than scoring a bucket to take the lead. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

Ya I hate the shot. Another game under Ryan where your best player does not get the best player the ball

Pete said he is 2nd in the NBA in isolation PPP. You need to run the clock out. You don't seem to understand that part.

Towns has improved his defense a lot so far this season. I'd say that he's been a pretty good defender this season overall. But he plays small. He doesn't defend vertically. Too often he crouches or fails to extend his arms vertically.

You either play to win the game, or you play to not lose the game. Minnesota did the latter and here they are about to lose in overtime. Another winnable game down the toilet.

Every single NBA coach does the same thing, you
win or go to OT. Not drive get fouled with 3 seconds left hit a couple then lose on a last second 3.
