Game 6: Close it out -- Thunder @ Jazz 4/27/2018 8:30 pm MST

Official on the baseline has a perfect view.

It’s a point of emphasis... sideways is not a foul. He shoulda just tried to you know shoot the shot. I’m glad they didn’t call it... the fooling refs stuff is a huge pet peeve for me.
 
Im glad that wasnt called, even if that was DM in place of PG Id have the same opinion. You gotta earn it and the refs made the right call letting the players decide the outcome of this game.
Exactly. Yeah, it definitely could have been called, and has been in previous instances, but George would have been smarter to take an honest attempt at a shot rather than hope for a whistle. Especially at that point of the game. NBA refs are known to swallow the whistle during end of game situations.
 
Looking back over the season. . . I’m SO glad that Snyder played Donovan so many PG minutes running the offense this year. He managed to work through his issues early in the season so he could effectively run the offense in a playoff close-out game.

Little things over the past few months that are paying big dividends now. Legacies are built in the playoffs. . . I’d say that Spida Mitchell is off to a DAMN good start.

I can remember him blowing up against the Pelicans and then teams putting a lot more pressure on him and it messing his game up. Put him off rhythm. Not even a hint of that tonight. Cool as ice.
