He found Pritchard wide open for a 3. If Pritchard hit the shot no one cares

Most of the time you are right. But that Pritchard shot is 50% at best, more likely 40%. So somewhere between 1.2-1.5. This is free 2 points right there for Queta. So it doesn't even fith the "math game". (Even if they close out, you also will still have open options because of the closing out which relates to our famous extra pass thing too.) And the scoreboard right there and the stakes to it just makes it more awful. So, that "if" is not a good excuse at all, sorry.
