And on cat, you know, I think honestly one of the landmark series of cat's career was, I think it was two seasons ago when the wolves swept Phoenix in the first round.
And Cat guarded Durant pretty much the entire series and guarded him pretty well.
He's actually a pretty good guarding down perimeter defender in just terms of staying down, doing the simple things.
I actually think he could buy them some minutes guarding Castle.
I don't think that's a terrible matchup.
I think he could buy them some minutes guarding Vassell.
But all of that is going to be very interesting.
I don't worry so much about keeping the OG card in my back pocket because they know it's coming.
They've seen it already.
It might be my best option anyway, and I'm going to go to it in game one.
The minute Keldon Johnson is in the game or Barnes is in the game, they're going to put Cat on those guys and cross-match that way.
But, look, there's no great answer for him right now, but no team has figured out how to keep him away from the rim for a full two consecutive games.
And when he makes his threes, forget about it.
I mean, he's just that good of a player.
But those are some of the β what else should we β oh, Mitchell Robinson.
I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that Mitchell Robinson could swing the entire NBA Finals.
And that sounds like a little much from a guy who plays 15 to 20 minutes a game, less in the playoffs because he can't hit a goddamn free throw.
The more I watch the Spurs, you need a little bit.
If you're going to score enough to survive against this one-man wrecking crew of a defense, and that's not to say they don't have other guys, but Wemby is the keystone.
He's half the arch.
