Why does everything before 12-12 mean nothing? If they won one extra round in the first half they would've won 13-11 and that whiff would've never even happened. And what about the last round of the game when it was 12-13? TL's plan didn't work and they got outplayed by PRX that round, but it doesn't matter and nobody's else on the team is to blame because patitek whiffed the previous round?
nothing matters because overtime is a complete reset, who tf cares about the earlier rounds when they got to OT, it was a new game and he choked, he lost them that game.
If you can make the point that if TL won an extra round early they would have won 13-11, I could make the point they would have won if they won the OT round.
But the difference is they were getting rolled early so it is understandable why they lost, but they were on the biggest comeback probably ever and he missed a shot an iron would hit.
Losing that round contributed to their loss for sure, but it isn't THE reason why they lost. You said they were getting rolled early, but that only makes their comeback and mental fortitude seem even stronger. They had to play flawlessly to even reach OT, how could you take that away from them by saying that it doesn't matter? Yes, patitek missed a huge shot. But he also won a crucial 1v1 when they were down 3-12 that literally kept the comeback alive. You can’t cherry-pick his bad round and ignore the good one — both contributed equally to the final score at the end of the day. Team game for a reason. TL lost cause they weren't able to close out 14 rounds, but patitek's whiff did contribute to them being unable to close out 14 rounds.
