They play really, really hard. The Harden, Ivica, Zubat's pick and roll is awesome. And for them to be in the playoff mix... like, I don't know, 25% into the season. That's impressive. And Kawhi Leonard apparently is around the corner. So yeah, we'll see what happens.

I'm blaming Buddy Hill missing wide open three.

That was the big thing. The big thing was instead of letting stuff sit to end the second round, or the first and third quarters, they put him in the middle. And there was periods there where you could feel like Steph was like, yo, why are you doing this to me? Like, it felt like torture. But you could see in the fourth quarter, like, it helped him. He was fresh.

He took Jamal Murray off the dribble every single time down. Like, every time he wanted to, he did. Well, to be fair, it is Jamal Murray, right? Like... I mean, listen, the part that this game underscores, just like the previous four losses, is they don't have another creator. They just don't. So it's not that he beat Murray. He's got to beat him bad enough to beat the help, too.

And that's the thing, because the help is there. They're ready. So he's got to, like, really blow by the guy. Otherwise, he's just going into a trap. So I do feel like he was fresher. It worked. But it doesn't solve the main problem, which is they just don't have another guy. And you just got to have one.

No, you got to go outside. Yeah. The thing with Wiggins and Kaminga, like even Kaminga, he was like finishing, but he's got to move. In the modern NBA, when the floor is spaced out, you have to be able to dribble. And I don't mean dribble. I mean, you got to handle the rock. Right. You got to have improvisation. You got to have what the youngsters call wiggle. They don't have dudes with that.

Like, they got, I'm going to make my one move, I can do two dribbles, and I'm going to hope for the best. Like, nah, you need somebody to left, right, spin. And, you know, like, Jokic can do it. Like, they need players like that. They got one guy. And the other option might be Pajemski, but... Yeah.
