Down the stretch of close games, I always think about something John Calipari said in a clinic. He called it “Streak.” The idea was simple: in a key stretch, he’d yell “Streak,” and from that point on, only his two best players were allowed to take a shot. He explained it as a way to avoid burning a timeout while still controlling shot attempts. I’ve never implemented it, but I think about it all the time, especially late in close games when a possession swings to the wrong player. A role guy tries to create, or a limited shooter rises for a big three… and you just know it’s not going in. Curious if anyone has used something like this and what your experience was.
