Both times Packer made a comment about how they were wasting time (wrong) and once said something about a five second call (again, wrong). Is it me, or did he not know the rule about the clock not starting until you touch it? For the five second call, maybe he was actually thinking of the ten seconds to cross half court rule. i don't know if that applies when the ball has not yet been touched though. Okay, enough of that. Great game and it is somewhat funny that the one major flaw everybody talked about for Memphis leading into the tourney is what bit them in the end. Make your freaking free throws!
