Thankfully Willie waited until there was 3 minutes left in the game to make some noise.

And miraculously the refs blew their whistle next two times (true they waited a bit for the call against Queen).

Two other highlights:
1. We cut it to 10, JJ puts back the starters, but Willie kept in Hawkins and Jose for few more minutes. So, Reaves scored twice and went to the line once against Jose (at least he sold one offensive foul).
Then he subbed out Queen (who indeed needed a short break) but put back Missi instead of Karlo, who once more played solid in his minutes.
And how did Missi played - he had 1 rebound and 0 blocks in 10 min. Add the 00 from Looney in 11 min (who somehow keeps starting the game and 3 quarters) and you get 1 rebound and 0 blocks in 21 min from your centers. But perhaps that's because they were very aggressive while defending, thus committing 1!!! foul altogether.

2. He takes a timeout while down 12 point and guess what he drew on the board - Fears had to force an occurred shot with no time left on the clock.
