1. Why not drive to the basket with 17 seconds left instead of an off balance 3?

The reason you don't drive to the basket with 17 seconds is because you have to make sure you get the last shot. You can drive with 7 seconds, but not 17. When you're tied, yo want to make sure that you are the only team that has a chance to win the game if there's less than 30 seconds on the shot clock.
