So as a result, there are four Spurs players that have cracked 80 minutes already.
The only player in a Thunder jersey who's cracked 70 minutes is Shea.
And so as a result, there is a fatigue advantage that I think is going towards OKC.
And I thought you could really tell, starting in that late third into that fourth quarter,
there was a lot of 50-50 balls that started to go towards OKC.
And I thought one of the pivotal sequences, well, frankly, the pivotal sequence of the game is Harrison Barnes hits that corner three that cuts it to 79-77.
And then we get the jump ball and it's Steph Castle versus AJ Mitchell.
or excuse me, versus Jared McCain.
And Jared McCain just barely gets like enough of a disruption of the first tap that it forces Steph to tap at a second time in the opposite direction away from Wemby, which leads to the Thunder getting the ball back.
I can't remember who it is, but a Thunder player gets a three.
I think it's Wallace.
And Kelton...
Yeah.
And he misses the first one.
And, and in case him, Wallace comes flying in and beats.
Yeah, exactly.
And it ends up being worked back around for the big three that Kaysen hits off of the right wing.
And then they go down to the other end.
I think Wemby ends up missing a wide open three, which again, he got a couple of really good looks down the stretch, which I think could very well be fatigue related as well.
But then they go down and that's when Alex Caruso kind of snakes through the lane and Hartenstein sets the Gortat screen and then Caruso pump fakes and gets that little shot.
