Clearly in game four, adjustment number one is whatever help you're giving off Chris Dunn in games one to three, dial it up by 50% in game four. Ignore him completely. And you got to be on time. You got to be on time no matter where Chris Dunn is. If he's on the strong side, it doesn't matter. Rules don't apply. Your job is to help. And he screwed that up a few times.

He played 42 minutes with a bad shoulder. Six of 11, four of seven on threes, 17 points. The Nuggets needed every one of those points. Crap on Michael Porter Jr. when he deserves it. Recognize that that's a ballsy performance. Christian Brown, I thought, was the unsung hero of the game. Eight of 19, not great. One of seven, not great. The one was huge.

I thought his defense was some of the best he's played. And you can see the Nuggets trying to figure out When can we sit Jokic back a little bit on these pick and rolls? Because when he's up to touch, it's a problem for us. It's a good battle when the Clippers have to pass it around and figure out how to find the open guy. But they're trying to like, can we sit him back a little bit?

You can only do that if Christian Brown is like roaring down Harden's tail on those pick and rolls. But you mentioned Dunn. And that was the adjustment that enabled the comeback was the Clippers went to Bogdanovich over Dunn and did something that I was waiting for them.

When will they feel pressed to do this, which is play, go all in on a lineup with only one non-shooter in Zoo instead of two with Zoo plus Dunn or Zoo plus Derrick Jones Jr. or God forbid, Ben Simmons plus one of those other guys. And they went all in on it. And the Nuggets had zero answer defensively like normal. Norm Powell went crazy. Every shot was wide open.

All of a sudden, the spacing just bent the Nuggets defense and just broke it. And I'm interested to see how quickly they go back to that. They should and will, I think, start Chris Dunn still. But you mentioned Batum, and Batum is the guy that I like in those lineups the best because of his combination of size, defense, and shooting. I've got my eye on that lineup with...
