So ... the playoffs haven't actually started yet?
After a 10-day layoff over the All-Star break, the Jazz and Thunder put on a show Friday night, going back and forth for nearly three hours before a last-second rainmaker from Paul George gave Oklahoma City a 148-147 win in double overtime.
"It’s just a shot that no one can block," Utah's Rudy Gobert said of George's game-winner. "He saw me coming—I think it almost helped him. He saw me coming and he just threw it as high as he could—and it went in. Just a big-time play."
The teams met in the first round of the playoffs last season, with the Jazz winning the series 4-2.
