It's the age-old question - when leading by three points in the dying seconds of a game, do you try to play good defense and defend against the 3-pointer, or do you foul to prevent it altogether?
Thursday night, Tulsa opted to play good defense and got absolutely torched by Temple's Devin Coleman.
With the Owls trailing by three, Coleman found some space in the corner and drilled a game-tying triple to force overtime, sending the home crowd into a frenzy.
Temple would take advantage of the clutch 3-pointer, winning the game by four in the extra period.
