It’s just aggravating how Finch teams lose fourth quarter leads and play down to competition.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker is this generations Trenton Hassell if Trenton Hassell learned how to achieve Super Saiyan before his planet was destroyed.

Trenton Hassell just needed Krillin to die in front of him. That is the secret ingredient.

I would like to see Rudy not float out of the paint as much as he is. On defense

KG, NAW got the last two shots because his teammates created for him. He hit 1 which was his 2nd on 3 attempts for the game. Then Mike ran it back because PGs always are on the lookout for someone who might be hot. After he hit the 2nd this quarter (4th for the game,) they decided to give him a 5th. Without the hot hand he doesn’t get that last shot, maybe not the shot before it either. That is how the hot hand is predictive.

NAW is hot. The hot hand seldom works as a predictor. You just pointed out one case where it did after I tracked 10 times in a row when it didn't. Any more discussion of this in the Hot Hand Thread.
