Something pretty special? Perhaps, but knowing that two guys were going to stick to you even when you didn't have the ball, makes it a pretty easy decision. You're not going to see the ball anyway, might as well stand in the corner and let your teammates play 4 on 3. If the opposing coach is giving your team an opportunity to play 4 on 3 (even with your best player not in the mix), you gotta take that opportunity.
