Lost by 2 to best team

We played the best team we'd faced all year yesterday. Unfortunately, we lost 37-35. That included cutting a 10 point deficit to 2 in the final quarter. Unfortunately, we had two shots on the last possession of the game, but could not capitalize. We had the ball with 20 seconds left and called timeout. We designed a 1-4 clear out for The Playmaker. We told the kids to be ready for when he beat his man down the lane and look for a catch-and-shoot opportunity. The Playmaker drive right and then crossed over to the left (easily beating his man) and headed down the lane where two defenders swallowed him up. He passed to a teammate on the left wing for an uncontested 7 footer that was back-rimmed. The followup offensive rebound was no good at the buzzer. For the game, The Playmaker had 7 points (3-5 shooting, 1-2 from the foul line, 5 rebounds and 4 assists). The Nets are now 7-3 and one game out of first place.
