Luka Doncic has been a much improved defender since he came back from Covid protocols but the Thunder hunted him tonight. It is simply inexcusable to give up that easy of a shot in that situation. There are many other factors which contributed to the loss but solid defense on that possession likely results in a win.

That was a bad possession, and so was the final posession in reg...no denying that. However, right after Reggie hit the 3 to go up by 2 Luka immediately starts telling everyone "No 3s". So he was aware of the situation and we decided we weren't getting beat by 1 at the buzzer. He just has to execute better defense there. I was annoyed but not even really mad at it. Without Luka, we would have been obliterated that game. We really played so bad that we shouldn't have had a chance to go to OT. Hell we had plenty of time to win the game in reg but the offensive possession was turrrrble. Bad Luka to finish but without Luka we would have been run out of the building.
The poor fans that drove out there and back in the weather for that game. Sheesh
