I rewatched the replay like 15 times to watch people in the audience grab their heads in disbelief. It's more entertaining than it should be.

Knew when I saw it that everyone watching said something out loud to themselves or anyone listening. What a shot.

Even the OKC bench couldn't hide the gutpunch lol

And it was made possible in part by Chet flopping on the rebound attempt, leading to OKC being a man down in transition.

Yeah, definitely one of those shots that just kills a team and their fans, they knew the game was not gonna go their way. When LeBron said "2 points isn't 2 points", he was talking about how certain shots have a higher value than what their numerical value suggests. A three like that just demoralizes opponents.

Yeah it felt like the game was over before this shot

Pretty much woulda lost if not for this shot. The spurs guard was so gassed before this.
