And what I set up for that game was these teams who get big leads like this.

I know it's in your DNA to shoot a lot of threes, not as much for the Spurs as it is for the Missoula ball Celtics.

When you have a big lead like that, the only way you can lose is by piling up zeros on your possessions.

Like the upside of getting a three versus a two or even a one from a free throw is outweighed by the downside of getting a zero.

Just go to the rim, get fouled three or four extra times, and you have enough of a cushion to win this game.

Just terrible process by the Spurs, and the Knicks made him pay for it.

I was like you.

I was like watching these threes.

Remember that one possession where...

Fox missed the three.

And then when B took two straight threes on offensive rebounds and it's like, what are we doing, man?

Come on.

I'm so glad you brought him up and I'm switching to my third coffee of the morning because it's that kind of morning.

Alvarado was sensational off the bench for the second time in four games in this series, help swing a game.

And I think, you know, in the second half,

Like Robinson and McBride have been their two most important bench players for the season.

And both of them have been more or less invisible in the series.

And I thought Mitchell Robinson finally started to get into the series a little bit in the third quarter when Kat got another foul and he had to play more.

He got a lob dunk.

He missed a couple of lob dunks and it makes you wonder he was shaking his hand at one point if that injury is hurting him.
