Yeah, that’s where their lack of a reliable inside scoring option really hurts them. You need to be able to get easy buckets in crunch time when you know the opponent is going to tighten up their defense. I think the big mistake was Lee passing back to monta on that pick and roll before the missed three — I would have rather seen Lee take that strong to the hoop as it looked like the defense was in enough flux for him to get there.

Yeah they really shit the bed there in the last 2 or 3 minutes. Really got away from everything that was working the whole game.

I just don’t get the play call for the 2nd to last shot. All the previous action and success of Ellis was ignored.

Don’t get to see lame html joke because wordpress thinks my comment is being interpreted as actual html code.

* second to last. Looks like they are getting one more shot down three with 1.1 left. Thunder will probably be smart and foul on the catch before they get to take a shot. Might be just short enough on the time that it will be a shooting foul no matter what.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCKKK. Well Monta does end up getting the last shot and he shoots the fade away 3 down by 1 instead of taking it to the rim. Lame. What a tough loss.

W’s get the last shot down by one. Gotta agree with Barnett that it was weird they didn’t want to take the last shot to win and are going to give the home team the last shot. Different strategy to say the least. Maybe it works.

Nice to see Monta actually go to the hole instead of taking a jumper with 22 seconds left. That was huge. I love the way they are running almost every time down the court and then pulling up when there is nothing there and running the set play.
