Imagine flipping channels last night trying to decide what to watch on a random Monday night and running across the Warriors game and casually thinking, "Well, I guess I'll watch this," not knowing that you were about to watch one of the more incredible performances in NBA history, Klay Thompson scoring 60 points in 29 minutes. What amazing luck that was, likely for some of you reading this. On the flip side, imagine being a basketball fan who decided to skip the game in favor of going out to see, say, Bad Santa 2 and missed it. Life is wonderful and full of surprises but also unfair and frustrating.
