To be honest all 10 players on the floor were not that effective on the offensive end for most of the 4th quarter. Paul hit some clutch shots early in the 4th, but the teams might have shot less than 30% in the fourth quarter. Amazing what stars can do on defence, especially when they start to get superstar calls on the defensive end and allowed to almost mug at times.

He had Siakam on him when he got the curl to the corner for the pullup jumper

They were getting away with a lot more than in a normal game. I think refs were genuinely surprised by the intensity and didn't know what to call and what to let go. It was almost like a collective, "****, are we supposed to start refereeing now?"

Nurse is getting heat for the loss. Also, the idea of Giannis joining the Raptors is in their heads.

Blame Giannis for getting emasculated offensively. If anything they should be happy because I’m sure he’s putting up jumpshots as soon as he’s back home.
