this is how i would handle this loss as a spurs fan
when you check her drivers license
Although it turns out being up 2 would have been amaaaazing there. So I'm not endorsing the choice either. He probably made 3-4 worse plays in the last 6 mins though... and let's not forget it was the very slick knock-ahead and sprinting by Fox that put him in that position to begin with.
I don't hate Fox's attempt, he's out in front and protected it well enough for 98% of the layups you make, it was an unreal block, and you're getting fouled 1 sec later with an equal probability of going up 3, more likely imo for a 75% FT shooter to miss 1 of 2 than that layup getting blocked
I hit post the second I finished. To have gone back and changed anything, even a typo, would have been to taint what may end up being my favorite thing I’ve ever written.
