No. Everyone who has played cried when their last game was over. Maybe he jumped the gun a little, but it was 99% over at that point. And he was in shock, just like everyone else that watched the game. Kid has a very bright future in the NBA.Labeeb said:I know I wouldn't want to throw millions at a kid who is crying before the game is over. That's something you do when you're 9 or 10.

They choked the game away, and when he was crying, the game was over. He's not Denzel Washington. Only a great actor could portray confidence at that point. And he had a minute to collect himself for the final possession. Give the kid a break. Losing your last game is beyond emotional. It's a feeling he will never forget and will take to his grave. And it's been on his mind all week. Did you play basketball?Labeeb said:Maybe he jumped the gun? Of course he jumped the gun. As the "leader" of a team that allowed the opposition to score the last 13 points of a game, he has to put on the face of calmness and confidence. That's what great players do.
Well, I know what it feels like to play your last game. And everyone I know that played real basketball cried or at least felt very, very emotional when their last game was over. It's the end of one of the best chapters you will ever have in life. And that feeling stays with you. Like I said, cut the kid a break, because everyone in the whole world besides you was freaking out at that point. UCLA fans, Gonzaga fans, neutral fans, coaches, players, everyone. Everyone but you.Labeeb said:There was still 2 seconds on the clock. I guess he never heard of Bryce Drew. My basketball career was a very short lived stint in college intramurals, but I played hockey and tennis through my college years. I didn't cry during or after my last game in either.
