Exactly what I was saying! No challenge at all! I'll take a hard foul than just an easy 2.

I think we're gonna get a Tatum step back 3 to try to send this to OT.

OKC and BOS are basically the same team. Talented teams with a lot of pedigree and a certain amount of accompanying entitlement. And like Bos, Okc doesn't know how to close teams out. Maybe playing against a mirror of yourself will help them long term.

Cs made a game out of it after pooping themselves in the 3rd. ONE MORE STOP AND SCORE.

KP had a wide open three if he stayed in the corner, was a great play. KP just audibled and cut to the rim.

Lmao yeah he was shutting down arguably the best player this season. Williams made a great quick move, might’ve caught JT off guard

Those two wide open 4th Q Chet threes loom very large right now.

I hope so because that means OKC misses 1 of 2 free throws.
