also so everyone knew Steph was going to get the ball, and he got doubled on the 3. He himself maybe should've drove. All they needed was a 2 or a foul then foul shots.

I don't get why they thought they had to go for a 3 when a 2 would've done it. That is really my point. A 3 wan't needed and a 2 is a higher percentage shot. Even Kwali Leonard had been making mid-range 2s all series. Maybe the coaching staff slept on that one.
