| If you lose a basketball game, you want to lose it like that," he said. "(Landry) made a great play."
The Hoosiers couldn't help but have flashbacks of their 74-73 loss to Charlotte, which at 0:00.7 inbounded the ball to Brendan Plavich, who hit three-pointer. "Clocks in the arenas must be slow or something," Wright said. "Against Charlotte, he took a dribble, then let it go. Here, (Landry) caught it, came down with it, gathered himself, then went back up. "I really thought he was going to make that free throw, and it would be two games we lost like that. That would have been a really bad way to go out." D.J. White helped the Hoosiers forge ahead for good by scoring six of his 16 points in the second overtime. He took advantage of Landry, who was saddled with four fouls, and gave IU a 70-65 lead with 1:25 left. |
