    Why on earth would you draw up a play to go to the hoop? We've seen that too often with Dame.
    Mid -range jumper is what you want. Or just any open shot.

    LeBron looked super tired in the 4th.

    Man watching Nikola makes me think of what a young and healthy Arvydas Sabonis could have done in the NBA.

    Jokic refuses to take any credit. “It’s a collective effort”

    Nurk at one time had the nerve to get jealous of Jokic and thought he was better than him lmao

    Are you sure that's what was drawn up vs that's what LeBron wanted? He doesnt' trust his shot. AD doesn't want to take a clutch shot. Hard to draw up players when your best players are uncomfortable shooting.

    Not a good idea. Going to have to be a hack for a foul to be called.

    TV guys said to watch for the inbounder Reeves. That was a better idea.
