We head to game seven for the Western Conference Finals and a chance to play the New York Knicks for an NBA title.

All right, first thing I was looking for, I talked about it after game five, when he doesn't get deep enough, sets up too far away immediately.

And I know you can say, hey, he hit two threes.

He's on the perimeter.

But that's not what I saw.

I saw somebody that it was like a clear thing of like, let's just not have him so far away from everything.

And I thought that that was very telling.

It was something I was looking for.

And I was rewarded.

Hell, I even got like the, I was talking about bad lobs, like whatever the good lobs are, throw them a couple of bad ones.

I even got those last night.

So I was, I was happy about it.

There is a trend here in the first half.

We've talked about it with field goal attempts.

Let's look at usage rate for Wembanyama in the first half of these six games.

Game one, a 30 usage rate in the first half.

Win.

Game two, 21.6.

Game three, 23.3.

Both losses.
