I actually don't care about anyone winning or losing in Pairs, other than holding out hope for Russia to score more points than USA here. D/R was entirely irrelevant to that.

True. The American pairs team turned out to be the heroes of the competition. By moving up one place they caused a two-point swing which delivered the gold medal to the U.S. by one point.

Indeed. Jason's 2nd place in the FS also helped.

BTW, excerpt from the official quotes (someone apparently asked Evan a question point blank):

Evan Bates (team captain)

(on team MVP) It was obviously a team effort but if I had to pick. Our pair team of Alexa Scimeca and Chris Knierim would be my MVP. Their long program today was phenomenal and I think their performance made the difference for us.

Again, I think Evan would have preferred to be inclusive of the whole team (Jason and the others). Was only answering a question.
But nice that Scimeca/Knierim received this acknowledgment :).

For sure, their program/result today was the most unexpected. They really put it all together.
