Of the times Dent did it himself, one was on a fast break after a turnover and one was after he passed it to Bilodeau three times who gave it back to him each time. One of the blocked shots was rebounded by Williams, so it wasn't a turnover. Blocked shots are no different than missed shots and everyone else besides Dent had them. Brown, Bilodeau and Perry all bricked threes in the last minute.
Iowa's two floaters were very difficult shots. Stirz drew some fouls by going 1-on-1.
Dent, was by far, our best player in the game. So why not go to him every time? His four buckets kept us in the game. What do you want them to do? Since we were behind in the last minutes, run the offense and set up a three for our best 3-point shooter? Oh, wait. He was sitting on the bench injured.
Like I said, it doesn't matter who or how we score. It's just the end result making shots that matters. It just depends on the game situation, time and score and who is hot. Every game is different.
