He was thinking about vacationing in Mexico
Why didn't he shoot it?? Absolutely brutal.
I am ****ing dumbfounded. Absolutely... they left the entire mid-range entirely unguarded and he had time to get off a completely uncontested shot.
I wanna say "If I was a Bucks fan" then I would want hit shipped out of there in a pine box but I am kind of a Bucks fan. That was ****ing unbelievable. I don't know if I have actually seen anything like that in a game-winner kind of scenario. He wasn't even close to getting a shot off in time but he could've.

I pine for this type of player on the Jazz.
This is a bad, bad man.
That was such a good game to watch. So much chaos in the last couple minutes of regulation and OT. The Bucks were up 4 with 14 seconds left and lost. They were up 16 going into the 4th. Giannis wanted no part of the ball at the end of the game either. Truly shocking stuff.

Blows my mind that 5 years ago, you could get him for Jerry Bayless, Covington, and Dario Šarić.
Oh, the Wolves FO.
Allen too.
A lot of people find what I'm about to say really annoying, because it's hard to quantify, but man.
I love bringing up stats, but there's an intangible trait that players have that just completely dwarfs any stats you can point out: Performance when things are tense, when the moment is big and the other team is rallying. Jimmy Butler turns into a 10/10 superstar in those scenarios. Jalen Brunson is a superstar in those scenarios.
I think the previous era's Jazz had a lot of guys that turn into total duds in those moments.

There is a way to quantify this. It’s quantified by finding out if they have that dog in them or not.
