I mean, something about Jamal just allows him to ignore pain if he needs to.

Yeah.

And you saw, I mean, like the...

I think we all kind of agree that Tim Hardaway Jr.

being in that last possession on defense, it was like, what are we doing?

But at least on the other side, like him being in there, you see what spacing actually means when it comes to Jokic and Murray.

You can't sag off that guy.

And it really gave them a lot of room with that really high pick and roll and just a long runway of the standard two-man game.

You get the pocket pass.

It just looked like vintage peanut butter and jelly.

Also put like, well, I don't know.

I don't know how to put KJ Simpson in the game.

I was going to say Spencer, but he would have absolutely died.

Yeah.

Strother seems to be the only one that seems like sort of in flux.

And I'm not convinced he would have played if P. Watt was here tonight.

But the thing about the small ball lineup is it got murdered.

on the defensive side in the second stint.

The first stint was great.

In the second stint, they got scored on every time down, and they also scored every time down, but it kind of broke a little bit.
