The Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors played Game 4 to an absurd and heartstopping ending on 2023.04.23.SAC-GSW.G4. Stephen Curry made fantastic plays down the stretch to build a lead, then he blew the lead with bad decisions, then he saved the lead with heady defense to close out the game. Draymond Green contributed huge clutch defensive plays, Klay Thompson had a big shot and good defense. With Jordan Poole, Donte DiVincenzo, Andrew Wiggins, Kevon Looney. Also De’Aaron Fox, Malik Monk, and Domantas Sabonis.

My wife asked why all the non-clutch Barnes comparisons to 2016 on twitter.
And I remember he missed some big 3s, so I pulled up the last minute of game 7 for her, game tied.
Kyrie makes a 3. Curry misses a 3. Lebron misses a free throw lol. Lebron makes a free throw. Curry misses a 3. Speights misses a 3. Title lost.
All the other games are blowouts.
So maybe it was all Game 7 that Barnes choked? Nope, he was (2/4) on 3s in game 7. He was way better than Klay (2/10) and Curry (4/12).
So maybe it was the whole series? Not really, he was 31% in the blow out games, which would not have changed anything, and was better than Wiggins/Poole so far vs. Kings.
So maybe it was the whole playoffs? Nope, he was 34.2%.
I came up totally empty handed trying to show my wife why all the Barnes blame for 2016.
Refs handed that to the lakers with those BS charge calls on Ja and calling a fould every time Reaves touches the ball for some reason
