Ppl keep saying Cavs would have still won by 1 if the goaltending against Oladipo was called

But the pressure is diff being down 2 w/ 3 secs remaining vs being tied w/ 3 secs remaining

If you're down 2 w/ 3 secs remaining and miss, you likely lose

If you're tied w/ 3 secs remaining and miss, you live to see another day (i.e. OT)

If the goaltending is called, I think Indy wins game 5

I agree but what's done is done so it don't matter. It's always less pressure when it isn't truly do or die.

It’s more pressure to hold your tongue when your boss is talking reckless and you got a wife and kids at home and you need that job.
