The Oklahoma City Thunder are at home taking on a Cleveland Cavaliers team that is without superstar LeBron James, who is tending to some soreness. The Thunder have Kevin Durant back in full swing with Russell Westbrook and the two were having their way in the second half.
Seemingly everything the Cavaliers did wasn’t good enough, including one of Kevin Love’s trademark full court outlet passes. Love sent the ball down the court to Joe Harris, who tried to get to the rim.
Meanwhile Durant, aka the Slim Reaper, was there waiting for him and swatted the ball. It seemed like everyone but Harris knew what was coming. It looked like Durant might have even been smiling as he swatted that ball towards his own bench.
It was like a rare instance when you see a car wreck or awful situation unfolding before your eyes and all you can say is “no” to no avail as what you think is about to happen happens anyways.
But give it up to Harris, he didn’t back down and went for it.
