At that point the coach has to just listen because it's not just whether it will be a success or not, the coach guaranteed they would get scored on as much as Kuz by not listening just to save a time out. Kuz forced him into that situation, but once in that situation he really does have no choice but to take it at that point. It would be really odd behavior if he wasn't right. I've only seen a player do this in such a way and fail the challenge once. The 'we gotta save it for the last couple mins' thing is dumb. 5 mins left is reasonable.

Funny thing is... Kuzma was right. The call would have been an easy overturn.
