GWill then missed two open 3’s (felt a lot like the early 4th quarter of the Sacramento game) and then Luka took over and played hero ball because no one could score (and he couldn’t score either).

Williams did not shoot well in the 4th, and he had some great looks, I agree.

But the shine is shinier than ever for me. For one thing, he’s the vocal leader of the team and to my mind a big reason for 7-1 in clutch games. Specifically in this one, he was directly responsible for the steal to seal the victory (didn’t get the ball, but CAUSED it) which I feel was at least a tie for the most clutch moment.

I LOVE Williams.
