That was terrific to watch but horrifying for Spurs fans. They completely lost it and the coach did a horrible job. Even on the final three pointer it's like they were standing around hoping something good would happen rather than attacking the glass to get the rebound.
Damn. Mitch Johnson with an all-time coaching eff up. The focus will be on Wemby's failures as the star, but Mitch did his young players no favors.
You called it.
Bad individual play by Fox not to just run time off the clock, would have been fouled anyways. But, the entire second half was the reason the Spurs lost. Just poor lackluster “game in the bag” play. Would like the Knicks and Bridges win it.

I'm glad the Knicks came back.
I'll catch the highlights. (Yeah, some sarcasm)

I'm not a fan of either team, but I'm still sick to my stomach about that play, an hour later.

It was so crazy stupid… from the one veteran on the team.

There is a disconnect with me and rap, hip hop, or whatever it is called these days.
I'm used to evaluating music on voice, beat, sound and instruments.
That's pretty damned shortsighted and narrow-minded of you to put it that way. And I'm not even the biggest fan of that type of music.
Rappers, the real ones that actually rap with meaning, are some of the best wordsmiths and lyricists you will EVER encounter.

And lose they did.
I want to know where Harper was in the forth QT. He was killing it, but I'm glad New York won

I wonder if that was on the coaching or him. He is a rookie so it could go either way. I think experience won it for New York, ultimately.

Mitch Johnson lost this series. Period. Let this be exhibit A on why coaching matters in the NBA probably more than in any of the 4 majors.

Dylan Harper did not attempt a shot over the final 10 minutes of Game 4 as Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson kept running the offense through De’Aaron Fox instead.
Facing three must-win games in a row, it’s time to pull the trigger on handing the keys over to Harper as their 1B.

Coaches seem to rely on the vets when the stats never show they should be relied on.

I'm not. I'm not disappointed either but I'm not glad. I wanted OKC to win it all until I made the mistake of watching them play a whole game rather than just highlights. After watching such a poor excuse for basketball from SGA and company, I was left with no team that interested me. I really like Mikal so I'll be happy for him but that's it.

Fox still has Sacramento all over him, tough to wash that crap off.
