Gotta make our FTs. Heading into OT now is less than ideal after control the game most of the way.

Well, that was short lived ESVL.

Memphis threw away this game in so many ways.

-Up 10 -12 late they were taking quick shots & not milking the clock.
-left 15 pts on the FT line.
-Couldn't get stops end of regulation/OT.

This one left a bad taste.

I was too upset last night to talk about what I liked about the performance.

Morant took 4 3's early in the game & without hesitation, the fact that he made them was icing. However late in the game as it tightened he became more & more reluctant while also bricking a critical FT.

IMO, it's all mental. He's overthinking the game because when he didn't hesitate earlier ... he was I think 4 of 4..

Basketball is a game of confidence. Morant, do you believe in your ability or not?.
