Morant is awesome
It was, and he is. But:
(a) he also missed two important FTs in the final minute of regulation and some other clutch opportunities in OT. Which is fine; he's only human. And yet
(b) maybe I'm just petty, but when the front page video on ESPN's NBA page, just after the Sixers have won, is a highlight reel comprised entirely of Morant's scoring plays, without a single clip of a Sixer score or stop, or any reference to the game-deciding plays-- especially when our guy had arguably a better game than Morant and was a +5 compared with Morant's -7-- I can't help but be like .
