And that's great, but this does not always happen on a close out. Often it's not.

If the defender jumps straight up, it can't be a foul on the defense (unless the official makes a bad call, or the defender brings arms down on the shooter).

If the defender is in the air traveling from point A to point B, they have made a bad play.

And I can't think of another common scenario where the defender would leave their feet like that except on an attempted shot contest. So maybe we are talking about different things. But if that is the case I have no idea what you are talking about.

Let's go Dubs, close this out tonight!!

See what the W's got tonight. They need to close out. There's teams that can beat the Rockets left but the Rockets are the only team that I can see beating the W's. The NBA finals for them are in the second round.

Flex on em Pat!!!

Well that was a sick 2 minute stretch for Durant. Holy shit.

Anybody that thinks some team from the 80's/early 90's could hop in a time machine and beat a modern team is on crack. They'd get shot off the floor and crawl back in their time machine with their tales between their legs.

Haven't been since 2017.

Clippers up 5

First team to 130 will win

Clippers outworking the Warriors in the first half. Simple as that.

Warriors shooting well, but they need to start defending or they going back to LA.

 

[bksballer89]

I really didn't want to stay up after 1 tonight but Clippers are having me really think about it lol

 

[msgkings322]

You'd think they'd be interested in playing defense and avoiding a trip back to LA but I guess not

Just don't see where your confidence in them is so strong. Yes they are favored vs Houston. BARELY
