Is team ball not a thing?
Or you have to shoot no matter what?
This could be a team chemistry
issue idk 
Do you pass or do you shoot in this situation because that’s the “mentality” these days 🧐🤔

2 point game, close to a 30 piece so you've been on.
Not sure if they're down 2 or up 2, but If you just need 2 to tie and think you can get past your man, or you're up 2 and can take some time to get your shot to extend the lead, I can see taking the shot.
Amen isn't far away, but was far enough that if he swung it immediately Monk had an easy bucket. That second delay would have given him enough time to recover to contest.
My immediate thought is to pass just looking at the play in real time, but circumstance might change my mind.

I almost expected the clip to be a step back 3
Challenging your man one on one with the game on the line is a lost art.

DeMar ain't passing.
LMAO
I SWEAR TO GOD I DIDN'T SEE
ONE SECOND OF THE GAME
NOR KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT
THE FINAL OUTCOME
YET I KNEW THIS THREAD
WAS ABOUT DEMAR DEROZAN
JUST BY READING THE TITLE...
DEMAR THE ONLY ONE
WHO STILL TAKES THESE KOBE LIKE
SHOTS AND THE BRON STAN
PUT MENTALITY IN THE TITLE
Depends on a couple of things. Score, time left, is malik even a good 3 pointer shooter, he didnt attempt to cut to the basket. Can i get past my defender?
Doesnt seem homeboy even cares he was getting his shot off.

Hard to see without seeing the entire cut. We can't tell how far away the closest defender is. Making a cross cut pass like that is dangerous as hell and the Rockets defender could've been baiting the pass.

It seems like a easy play
I just don’t get it sometimes why not pass it
I've watched DeMar for the last 3 years, the funniest thing about these kind of plays/shots from him is that when he does this, he acts oblivious with his teammates afterwards. On some chill ass...
"My bad man, I didn't see you" type shyt
And keeps a cordial attitude. Whole time, he definitely saw that nikka over there and was like, "I'm not passing you shyt"
He used to do Coby like this... especially when it was a 2 for 1 situation and DeMar doesn't shoot the ball fast enough, he just always patted on his chest like, "my bad man, you right"

That’s playing with my intelligence
I think this was to go up 2 posessions
Monk would've chucked the 3
Demar clutch midrange
fukka team chemistry
You have to know context. Did demar feel he had a mismatch? Was demar in rhythm? Was monk cold during that stretch? Do he even like Malik monk to be passing him the ball like that? It’s so many factors and variables you need to know

It was a bad read but maybe he saw something else we didn’t see.
Plus there’s the clock (maybe DeRozan was trying to drain it), then there’s what you need, foul sutuation, etc.
An open 3 is a pass most players will make but it depends on the situation I guess
