    I would pick either Clint on a lob, Tucker or Green on the kick-out to the open corner, Gordon or Rivers on a kick-out to the open wing, Westbrook on a cut, or Harden on a 3-pointer, floater, drive, or pull-up.

    It's not going to be a problem.

    Whoever is open is how championship teams win.

    Horry
    Kerr
    Paxson

    Find the open man and let it fly.

    James Harden, EG as a back up plan for a dump pass if things go south for harden

    If I know what kind of play/defense we’re going with I’d say WB for a drive in lay up. Harden if I know it needs to be a jump shot

    We all know it's gonna go through James Harden's hand. Only way hHarden passes is if he can't jack up a shot.

    This is one of the reasons I love EG. let’s not forget that huge shot he hit with a minute in Golden state in game 4 of the WCF in 2018 and had 30 plus in the destruction of the Warriors in game 2 of that series. Then obviously the philly game winner and the Lakers OT shot

    Hell before the Paul trade he was a budding all star candidate in the 2016-2017 season.

    I'd say, give it to Westbrook who can get inside for the 2 and let Harden / Gordon get the catch and shoot 3 if that's necessary to win or tie.

    I want Harden with the ball with Capela and Russell cutting. I want Gordon and House spotting up with maybe some motion. I’m that scenario, it isn’t so important who gets the last house as all of those players would be playing to their strengths in said scenario. I think that you all agree with me.

    Alex,

    I will take Westbrook taking a 35 feet off balance jumper with 9 seconds left over a Harden dribbling crossing his leg and lose the ball to a break away dunk.

    I don't care who takes the shot as long as it's not Harden inbounding the ball.

    Definitely Russ. Frauden is a mental midget.
