I still think this situation was way overblown. No pressure from the clock, slight misjudgement on Simmons on the threat the jumping defender (Young) poses, so he goes for the pass. If wide open Thybulle would have been ready for the pass and takes the easy bank shoot instead of jumping into the crowd, no-one would talk about this play. To me this failed play was at least as much on Thybulle as on Simmons.
You have overpassing plays like this from Luka every game where he would have a fairly open layup (or dunk if he would be as athletic s Simmons) and chooses to pass it out to an wide open player.
