Reggie Jackson had a horrible start to this first-round series. 3 of 19 or something in the first three games. Of course, the thinking is that nothing anyone on that team does matters, except for Durant and Westbrook. And that idea is mainly correct.
Then game 4 comes along, and Reggie is the unlikely hero, scoring 32 points in a vital win. When the Thunder championship DVD comes out (I said it), that performance will surely be highlighted in hushed reverence.
This performance isn’t as noteworthy. Half the points came in garbage time. But if you’ve been subscribed for long, you know that garbage time is DownToBuck’s favorite time.
