Isn't it great how Ant patiently waits and really listenes when Ricky is giving him instructions? No ego. That is so bleeping refreshing!

Why does Towns get off his feet and swat down? Drives me nuts. Just stay vertical.

Crunch time the final 3 minutes. This is where the good teams excel.

Will they ever learn to not bite on a pump fake? McD is gone.

Towns has to get better with these fouls, seems like every game he is in trouble. Getting him another big would help too.

Great defense by the Pelicans and Hermangomez is killing it on defense. Bodying Towns up and making him miss, they are playing big here.

Pelicans shouldn't have gotten the offensive rebound there..KAT has to do a better job in grabbing that rebound

Overtime. KAT got outplayed by Willy Hermangomez in the last 5 minutes, he is killing it. KAT needs to find another level, should try to get Ant involved too.

Ant didn't really touch the ball much in the last 4 mins

The last shot should have been Edwards, Russell has been ridiculously bad over the last 3 minutes. KAT was pretty awful as well.

It should be Ant running pick-and-roll action with Towns, there. I really disagree with Finch's decision making.

It's a shame they gp to overtime. Towns and Dlo really let them down the last couple of minutes.

Pels made a 14-4 run in the last 4 minutes to get it to overtime.

We’ve been doing so well in the fourth quarter, that it feels weird to have the show on the other foot.
