    I don't know why Nash (or even Durant) insists on inbounding the ball to Durant, and then having Durant guarded by Tucker for the entire play.

    I've said this since the series started - Durant should get into position in the post, receive the ball there and just shoot over Tucker. Tucker has great footwork and defends laterally really well. You're not usually going to blow by him often, and you're not strong enough to move him out of the way without it being a foul.

    Or find a way to switch any other defender onto Durant.

    It is a freak injury, in that it wouldn't have happened if Kyrie landed on the floor with both feet.

    You could literally not play a single minute, be subbed in for one play, and in that one play, land on someone's foot like Kyrie did and turn your ankle.

    Fatigue has nothing to do with what happened with Kyrie.

    If Kyrie played way less minutes, he still would have gotten injured landing on Giannis's foot.

    Can Kevin carry his own team? (Y’know, without Russ, James, Serge, Steph, Klay, Dray, Kyrie)

    Hopefully he’s just restricting his own minutes

    I seriously wonder what is going through Giannis’ head when he pulls up for three.

    Why?

    If Harden gave Durrant some of his weight they would truly be a super team :D

    I feel you.. I want Harden to do well and not do well at the same time. Harden being hurt makes it a lot easier to root against his team.

    Sucks that Harden continues to fake an injury to avoid playing Giannis they could really use him out there today.

    when you play tough opponents you get confused and more injury prone, fatigue is not just what happens in the moment , the very anticipation of fatigue cause you to malfunction sometimes
