I think Hartenstein had a layup.

And then there was just stuff where there was like disorganization defensively.

And I don't know how much of that I'm going to put on Wemby or put on the whole team or put on the coaching staff in terms of their message of what they want to do defensively.

But early in the game, Shea comes off a pick and roll.

Hartenstein rolls to the rim.

Fox is on Shea.

He's actually in pretty good position, but Wemby shades over, but never makes it all the way to Shea, like kind of stops at the block in case Shea's coming into the paint.

But he leaves Hartenstein and nobody pulls in and that gives up a wide open dunk or layup for Hartenstein.

And it was just small things like that where I wasn't sure, almost felt like Wemby was unsure what to do defensively.

where I'm so used to seeing like anybody drive by the rim, you're going to have to get it off over an eight foot dude, right?

Like I think it's along those lines and that just didn't seem to be there in that aggression.

And then, you know, on top of that, him only having just six rebounds was kind of a flashpoint for me where it's like, okay, like I know you're contesting shots as well, but we're used to you getting 10, 11, 12 rebounds a game on top of that.

Well, I mean, being a big man is exhausting in general, right?

We also know that they're refereed differently than guards in terms of what's a foul and what's not.

And I'm not trying to say anything about the...

when we should have gotten more calls or anything like that, or I thought he was officiated pretty well in this game.

I think ultimately though, it's just, you got to bang bodies.

All your catches are tough in the playoffs.

All your catches, everything at the Dirk spot, when he's trying to catch it, he has Hartenstein leaning on him.

He has a J William Jalen Williams leaning on him.
