Connor Fitzsimmons

There's a lot to unpack here. This game was between two teams fighting to kept their seasons alive. We have the egregious decision by Fitzsimmons (say what you want about him, but this garbage is usually out of character for him even when he's at his worst), the surprisingly gritty hustle play by Jabari Rhodes, and the incredible celly by Calvin Ballard right at the end. Also did you see that blatant holding penalty by Hoagie McDonald on Jerome Williams? Check your phone, ref - think you missed a call there.

What the hell was that? Is there anyone less likely than Fitzsimmons to make such a badass play? What a random occurrence - this gem came out of nowhere through the slop of a Cleveland blowout loss. Afterwards, Fitzsimmons immediately returned to his normal vanilla self.
