I love this idea, maybe it will work. Point guard Rafer Alston is wondering whether starting the game down 20-0 would be a good idea. "Call (NBA commissioner) David Stern," Alston said. "We'll start the game down 20 and then do the jump-tip and then let's play basketball." - The Sun Hyperlink button wasn't working, so http://www.canoe.ca/NewsStand/TorontoSun/S...923020-sun.html It would just give us more time to catch up, and we only play good basketball if we are coming from behind it seems.
As crazy as it sounds, that'd be a great learning experience for any team to come back from a 20pt deficit. Having a winning record with that kinda deficit would make a legit contender out of any team.
if we were down 20...i see us getting down 40 then try to fight back after the half...i cant see us coming with energy right from the tip

In the headlines, Jalen scores 44 points in 4th quarter to overcome the 35 point 4th deficit.
