(Ep. 443/ATL and 29) Game 4 Reaction

It was a lot of, like, YOLO three shots.

Like, they were just taking YOLO threes.

Now, those YOLO threes were going in in the first half.

And, like, that kind of – it ballooned the league because they couldn't miss.

They were taking all the YOLO threes.

Regression to the mean happened in the second.

and they could never get back into their flow offensively.

Their best offense is when be at the rim, right? And it just felt like, they couldn't get back to that just based on maybe when these energy level, like he's playing a lot of minutes in these playoffs and he's pretty consistently like has to me, it just feels like he has dead legs in the second half late.

And so like, I think the Knicks really took advantage of that on both ends of the floor with him, but they, you know, it's kind of what I talked about earlier, you know, previewing this series where, Outside of Wimpy, they don't really have another big, you know.

Carl Anthony Towns gets two fouls within the first minute of the game.

Absolutely changes the dynamic of the basketball game.

The second foul was so bad.

So bad.

I mean, the first foul is like, they haven't called that all series, but whatever.

The second foul is like, At some point, you have to punish Wimby for reaching.

It is a massive competitive advantage if he's just allowed to reach and not go on call.

If you're going to call the foul, you've got to call the first foul where he reaches, catches them, And then he does hook him.

Like, he does hook him for a second, but he lets him go.

Like, I'm like, come on, guys.

Like, this is basketball.

I just don't.

For them to call the hook and not the first reach just felt egregious to me.

Like, if you're going to call the foul, like, all right, no free throws.

That's fine.

But it's still a foul on Wendy.
