You got to make sure you take a shot early enough to have a second chance. If you miss, you foul and then use your timeout after the Warriors free throws. I know it was a win it or lose it shot, but you could’ve been in the same position with two chances and not just one. Just my thoughts and opinion.

It wasn't an awful shot by Barnes but the play fell apart when Fox screwed around after the switch to get Curry on him and Curry defended him well.

The point is to get a good shot off whether you have one chance or two. If the Kings had used your strategy there's the chance that they could have thrown up a a bad shot with the Warriors getting the rebound and playing keep away to run more time off before they could be fouled.

The last play came down to the Warriors defense being better than the Kings' offense.

Tbh it worked out perfectly for the Kings bc Curry was a retard and went early on the Warriors possession. The warriors could’ve ran the clock down to 3 seconds.

Curry went hero ball and shot w 12 seconds left.

The Kings plan worked perfectly. Give credit to Warriors defense in the last 10 seconds. That still was a makeable shot by Barnes and had he hit it with the clocks expiring, it would’ve been 3-1 Kings with no chance for the Warriors to win or extend game 4 into OT.
