    Players did decide it. They had 3.5 seconds to make a shot and couldn't convert. Players decided it, just not in the way he wanted.

    what wide open 3s? They defended the 3 line pretty aggressively and made us adjust, but we did and won. As for turnovers, it was a battle.
    15 vs 16 turnovers. Both teams were playing with pure goofy adrenaline. Couldn’t ask for anything better.

    We missed a ton of open 3s. We do regularly.

    Let's see, the refs gave us one marginal call against the Warriors in the regular season vs 10+ absolute atrocities in the Western Conference finals over two pivotal games. I figure they still owe us. A lot.

    yes. And true. I’m just saying though, credit to the warriors D. Many were wide open but flustered and out of rhythm. We don’t have 3 pt assassins but we have offensive machines who can adjust if the 3 ball ain’t falling. Dantoni was one-note.
