It's so amazing how these teams will foul in the final seconds on "purpose", then proceed to dribble the clock out and not even attempt a shot. It's also amazing how this affected the spread by .5.
I'm happy I won, although it was a very small play, but I know this will come back and get my thoughout the year.
This exact same scenario happened to someone else yesterday.
