Meeks for taking the pressure off Beal.

Tatum for brain farting?
Porter has an incredible pass to Meeks when it mattered and was decent in OT but it felt Beal really paced the teams scoring tonight. Ian actually played like a god damn center and wasn't as soft as Gortat's bitch made ass.

As much as it would have been nice for Beal to hit some of the clutch late-game shots (though the and-1 was nice), how can you not give it to him? POTG is given based on the total body of evidence and his stat line is fantastic....

I wasn’t able to watch the game. So I’m going with Devin Robinson.

Looks to me like Beal and Mahinmi are the only two choices. For all the (justified) talk of Beal's lack of clutchness, a glance at the play by play shows that Beal was actually pretty solid down the stretch. He missed some shots to be sure, but he also made 3 out of 4 shots in the final minute of regulation. He was 0-1 in the first OT and 1-3 in the second OT (and 2-3 from the FT line)

I dont even know. Beal I guess. But Meeks hits that clutch 3.... And Porter for having the wherewithall to kick the ball out to him on that drive. It was a really horrid game to watch. Beal had at least two turnovers where he dribbled the ball off his leg - that was like a good analogy for the whole game - I felt embarassed and sore.
I've seen it referred to in wrap ups as a "thriller" and a "nailbiter" but it was the least enjoyable double OT game ive ever had the displeasure of watching.
