Here's the reality.
When SGA is out there, they're getting physical with him.
They were trapping him at half court, saying Caruso, we're going to go open jump shots.
Then they would spot over on the lane.
Wimby would just kind of follow him.
In this last game, they had success.
The Spurs did because what they do, Wimby would wait.
And as soon as those drives happened, he's athletic to get over there and slide over.
So the one thing they've done is keep SGA from getting to the rim.
And a lot of the shots,
are over contested, high, big-body hand, and they have the versatility to guard them.
