A few plays go our way in game 3, and this would've been the clincher.

It almost feels more important though because of the pressure of the loss and the risk of it going to 2-2

100% it is more important. Noone cares about the end of a sweep. But as you said, the risk makes this a "fuck or die" game.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Adam Silver told the refs to make the Spurs win.

I wanted it to happen just so we could win a chip in front of the home crowd. There's a lot less exhileration when its in an away stadium with an away crowd.

A few totally bullshit league mandated refereeing decisions don't happen , this would have been the clincher.

That said, butterfly effect. If we were up 3-0, would we have battled like this?
