And then when the ball got passed, there were no quick decisions by the guy receiving the basketball.

And, like, what happened to all these, like, Brunson gets off the ball, goes down, sets a screen for the guy in the corner, and then he cuts.

And then Brunson cuts off of that, and he's moving off the ball.

Like, the stuff that they were doing in that 13-game win streak was not hero ball Brunson.

And down the stretch, we go to that under five minutes.

That's just what happens, and it works.

But I think that there's a little too much of that

I, this morning, watched all of Kat's shot attempts.

And it was really interesting because games one and two, if he had Wembanyama in front of him at the three-point line, I felt very confident in his ability to sort of muscle and just ugly his way into the lane and get a layup.

And, you know, and one thing I've learned in this is defense play of the year,

but not quick on his feet.

And when he's closing out, you can get past him.

You know what I mean?

So the difference between that Shamit block was so frustrating because OG has mastered having Wimbinyama behind you, but then just sneaking the ball over the top of the rib with two hands, like just sort of like making it just quick enough and like sneaky enough.

But then Shamit's trying this like finger roll thing and that's just going to get eaten up by him.

But Towns, when I watched his 10 shot attempts this morning,

I want to say around him for one or two of those.

And a lot of it was just, oh, Cornette's here.

Let me go.

I've got someone else on me.
