If he used it just once, thats the difference between a Portland bucket or not. Add onto it playing THJ 20+ minutes again.
Refs also blowhard. Im so annoyed.
You should calm down. Bad offense in the second half lost it, not RC. Luka went 2-11 from three point line. Last two 3 pointers totally unecessary. Taking too many difficult stepbacks while he can drive and get to the free throw line or pass to an open teammate. They shot 26 % from 3 as a team and 39 overall. Portland shot 40 from three and 52 overall. Here is the difference.
Great game to watch.
Well, RC said it years ago, "we're a jump shooting team". That's just what he's comfortable with. He has no stomach for hard nosed NBA ball like Stotts does. He should have insisted that Luka drive the lane like he was doing in the first half, which was working like a charm.
