Not a foul on the last shot.

Man...we played like shit after that 17 point lead, so we don’t deserve to win...but hate to lose on a bad call...of course Book probably goes 2/3 from the line anyways

Foul or no foul they didn’t deserve to win. Literally everyone played like shit. People had moments but overall they played like shit.

I knew the team was in trouble after getting too comfortable taking 3s late in the 2nd

I saw three replays. I don't think it was worthy of calling a foul, just like the and-1 that they did call.

Late game effort was cute and all but guys didn't play well tonight
Like I said, Fitting end to the game. it's no doubt a foul, can always tell by the lack of back spin that the player didn't get to follow through cuz he was hit.

Either way

Contact on the hand that's shooting is very much worth calling!

I think what did us in on that last shot is there wasn’t enough time for us to keep passing the ball til the last remaining seconds...then do another quick pass, then shoot the 3.

National media guys always leave me dumbfounded when they ask Why Ayton usage is low

They aren’t watching the actual games...or just watching in spurts. So they think it’s a strategy problem. They don’t realize Ayton doesn’t know how to roll, doesn’t catch the ball when he does roll, and can’t do anything in the face up game except take a low percentage middy. And if he does manage to get the ball near the rim, half the time he throws it back out, the other half he pump fakes until he gets the ball stolen or his layup blocked.

That's right, which is why no one on the team believes in him when they need a bucket.
