Un-*******-believable.

We didn’t deserve to win anyways. Oh well. Gotta play defense. That was the goal of this team and they haven’t done it.

George got fouled by Towns on that last possession.

This team isn't close to great.
Frankly it struggles to be average right now.

If we play the rest of the game like we did the fourth quarter, then we wouldn't have been in a position to lose on a 35-foot bankshot buzzer beater.

After being in a stupid position. You force Wiggins to catch the ball moving away from his basket but then you cut him off at the sideline, not run towards him.

Also George was fouled right in front of the ref. He swallowed his whistle there.
