After a perfect counterattack, the Rockets were only six points behind!
Brian Hill immediately called a timeout and yelled at Wilkins, "I don't know what made you make that decision!"
He was furious that Wilkins had ignored his tactical setup.
Wilkins spread his hands, "I had made two in a row, and it was an open shot."
"But my strategy was for you to hold onto the ball, whether it was an open shot or not!" Brian Hill roared.
It could only be said that Dominique Wilkins still retained some habits of being a superstar.
In the NBA, not every player has to follow the coach's plan one hundred percent of the time.
Roger could ignore the tactics and go solo in certain rounds.
Shaq could stop all other work during certain periods, just focusing on demanding the ball in the paint and attacking.
Michael Jordan could say no to Phil Jackson's triangle offense at any time.
Stars like Stockton and Karl Malone, who always followed the rules, were in fact the minority.
