Why Fouling Up 3 Actually WINS Games: Spurs vs Thunder Breakdown

This Spurs-Thunder finish perfectly shows why fouling up 3 is the right call! Mitch Johnson learned from Pop's mistakes and took the smart foul with 8 seconds left. Yes, Chet missed the first free throw, but that's exactly why the strategy works - you force them to execute under pressure instead of letting them run a perfect play for a wide-open three.⁣

The Caruso miracle shot at the end was incredible, but notice how the refs let them play - that's textbook "hand is part of the ball" contact. Sometimes you just tip your cap to great execution.⁣

Wemby's celebration says it all - this young Spurs team is learning how to win the right way! 🏀
