He was going for a strategy of getting the ball down the court without the clock counting down. If a basket is made before the final 2 minutes is reached then the clock stops when it does reach 2 minutes if no one has taken possession. (is that correct?)
So if he mistook the 4 minute marker number for a 3 he thought at 2 the countdown would stop and allow him to travel the court without the clock working against his team.
