Could've had 1 minute and 1 timeout, the odds go up exponentially if that was the case.

I was thinking the same thing. Just let them score and take the time you have left

You don’t let them score when you are up by 6. Are you brain dead?

Its called hindsight. They end up scoring anyway, so theyre saying if they just let it happen with 53 seconds left they might have more of a chance than with 30. Which is true.
