I think fatigue was a factor, especially for Wembanyama.

Two for nine from three-point range.

That tells me that his legs weren't all the way there.

Watching that first quarter, within the first five or six minutes, there were moments where Wembanyama was grabbing his knees.

And that's not something that's encouraging if you're San Antonio.

Look, he's a unicorn.

He's a unique player.

The fact that he's 7'4 and can pull up from 28 feet, that is a valuable asset.

but you also need him in the paint.

You also need him drawing fouls on Carl Anthony Towns.

Think of the third quarter when he got out of the locker room.

What, Towns picked up three fouls in the first five, six minutes of the third quarter?

That's the guy we need to see for the first 24 minutes of this game.

He's got to be more in the paint.

I do think fatigue was a factor.

in this one.

And I'm not sure that gets much better with less than 48 hours of rest.

But Wemba Nyama's got to be more in the paint.

Yeah, Paulie.

Brunson got all the coverage from Game 1.
