finpooch hits more game winners because he has taken more shots with the clock winding down. he's too much of a pissy ball hog when the clock is running down. a quick synopsis of michael finley's thought process as time is running down..."umm, i'm a 45 percent shooter, there's 3 seconds left, ..umm, dirk's open, nash is open, ..juwan is open,..well, we're down two, umm, let's see...hmm, how about i shoot the ball, i'm only 23 feet from the basket facing the wrong direction though...., yeah, i'll shoot it"

i'll admit, he's a quick thinker to get all of that thinking done in three seconds, but remember the moral to the story...don't shoot turn around fadeaway 23 footers when other better shooters are open. oh yeah, he missed the shot, barely hit rim, but who cares, he made a game winner a few weeks ago. it doesn't matter that it was a bad shot that he took with other people open...besides, why should we expect him to make it, he's a 45% shooter. no pressure
