That's not an offensive foul! Terrible call. What? Do you expect Curry to float in the air?

Wow, everything but the finish there. Should've called the time out, because I believe they still had one.

Wow.  I thought only the Celtics choked final possessions like that.

The end of that game is on McHale.  He HAS to be running (or limping in his case) to the center of the court screaming for a timeout the moment he sees the transition slow up on that final drive.

You have probably the best ISO guy on the planet. Why not try a timeout and set up a play there with 8 seconds still left?! If nothing else, you know you'll get a decent ISO from Hardeb that he's been drilling all series long.

Gonna be  a lot of second guessing on that last possession.

Eh, it's a tough call. If it worked, people would probably go "McHale trusts Harden to make the play, and it worked."

It was an excellent no timeout call. Why let the defense settle? He's been hot all game, all series in fact, so he's coming in full confidence too. It just so happened that Curry timed the double team well and he bobbled the ball.

But how about the Splash Defense, eh?

I think there was a lot of first guessing, too.

No excuse for not getting a shot off. Harden will have to do his best to forget that play.

I liked what the announcers said: "the one time Harden actually gives up the ball" lol at the very least they should've called a time out when Howard had the ball, because it was clear that the play wasn't going anywhere.

I don't think I have ever seen anyone shoot the ball like Steph Curry. Are you kidding me?
