    Gordon smartly took a wide open, makeable shot down 1 with time running out. He could have complicated things by getting closer but just getting off a good shot on the final possession is the most important thing. It just happened to be on the 3-point line.

    He probably could have challenged Chet, but yeah, good point. That's also a shot he's been hitting this season.

    Terrible coaching down the stretch by OKC.

    Anybody have a clue as to the ultra quick fouls by OKC with less than 15 seconds to go?

    The last one where Jokic wasn't even the floor, wtf are you doing fouling there? Let that play run out. The worst you got is OT.

    You had Chet choking too. All OKC had to do was make their FTs.

    What an absolute cinema game.

    Westbrook playing meaningful minutes since his days in OKC.

    Want to know something crazy about Westbrook? The guy has more total points and assists combined than Chris Paul, Kevin Durant, and James Harden. The guy has put up crazy numbers for his career.

    All they had to do is defend the three without fouling. the worst outcome is OT.

    All these foulings can actually lead to a loss. Even a last second file can give the opponent a potential four-point play via 1 made FT + a tip rebound and a three to beat you, which happened quite a few times.

    I never get why anyone preferred fouling up three.

    It's on Daigneault, you never want to put a questionable FT shooter or a big man in that pressure cooker.
