Some great examples of this are Ben Simmons passing up an open dunk with Trae Young at the rim & J.R. Smith forgetting the score during a finals game , which examples come to mind ?
Zaza Pachulia + Kawhi Leonard comes to mind.
Alton Lister and his Lister Blister. Didn’t help that Sean Kemp murdered him in his contract year.
First one that came to mind for me was Ben Simmons passing up that easy layup in the playoffs with the 76ers.
Dame shooting over paul george cemented playoff P legacy
Andrew Bynum elbowing JJ Barea.
Completely deserved tho
Darius Washington Jr
Here comes Austin Rivers!
Rivers has gone on to bring a solid role player for title contending teams.
Then there’s the Duke guy on the bucks, bucks vs heat elimination game the Denver championship season. Decided it was his job to make a game winning play but ran out of time. The kids got a solid role on the suns now too.
