You think that shot that Brust took was a 25% shot? More like a 5-10% shot.
Ideally do you foul him before he has the chance to shoot? Of course. I don't think that was the reality of the situation though. You'd be putting him on the line for 3 shots.
Actually, it's been statistically shown to be pretty much always the right move, and there was plenty of time to commit a non-shooting foul. I'm glad he didn't, nice to see scUM lose.
