Favors and Gobert very efficient and productive. Nice to see traditional styled frontcourt duo thriving in small ball era.

But credits to Westy. Down by 25 in the third, I thought this game was over.
With that in mind, there is but one thing to do: Throw in the towel on Carmelo Anthony.
We're not saying cut back his minutes. We're saying glue him to the bench, and firmly. Anthony has been a useless offensive player in this series against the Jazz thus far, averaging 12.8 points on a measly 36.9 percent shooting, including 21.4 percent from the 3-point line. He has committed five turnovers against just two assists, both of which came in Game 1.
Yes, you read that right: Anthony has not had an assist for four games. Maybe you've gotten used to that in Oklahoma City.
Since late February, the Thunder have been better with Abrines or Grant in the lineup. Anthony's net rating was 2.7 after Feb. 24; Abrines' was 3.0, and Grant's was 4.9.
Save yourself. Possibly even save your team, or at least get them to a Game 7.
Put Anthony on the bench. And leave him there.
