I feel like tonight, like, I mean, I don't think that Minnesota has yet to play their best game. Like, I don't think tonight was a great Minnesota game. Was Minnesota good? Stop, wait, let me finish my thought. So tonight the problem was the two people you just mentioned, Nas Reed is always a problem, let's just be real.

He's constantly scoring about 53% from the floor, 40% from three, like he's a thing. In these playoffs, Dante DiVincenzo and Nikhil Alexander Walker have both been shooting 30% from the floor, 18% from three, that's Dante DiVincenzo in the playoffs. Nikhil Alexander-Walker, 24% from the floor, 20% from three. Until tonight. Tonight, Dante DiVincenzo looked all world.

And the funny thing is that he went three of eight, which is like 37%, but how many were wide open? Nikhil Alexander-Walker, same thing. It was swing, swing, and the Warriors forgot rotations. And we saw in game one, The zone worked. And we particularly saw in game seven of Houston that the zone worked, that 3-2 zone that they're doing works.

But I think there's some truth to, and I believe it was Kenny Smith that really laid this out beautifully. When Ant Edwards went down and people had to kind of fill in around him, You're not filling in different roles, new roles. Nas Reed is still Nas Reed. Dante DiVincenzo is still Dante DiVincenzo. And you can go down the roster, up and down the roster.

Everyone is still going to be in their same position. Steph going down completely changes the anatomy of what their defense looks like, what the rotations of that zone looks like. And people forget what they're supposed to do.

It's a house of cards. Exactly. House of cards is the best way to put it. He's a house of cards. He's literally, if you remove Steph, now everyone's out of position. And the biggest thing about their defense, if you want to win by defense, you can't let these role players go off. Like Dante DiVincenzo cannot be that wide open.

Nikhil Alexander Walker, he had both of them had 19 point, 20 point games during the regular season. Like we know they are the key to making sure that Minnesota doesn't go off. And tonight they were three of eight, both of them from three wide open threes. So I'm looking at this, Marcus, and I'm like, I'm kind of, if I'm the Warriors, I'm encouraged. Like, this was their best showing so far.

And, excuse me, Nikhil Alexander-Walker went four of six. Nas and Dante went three of eight. But if this is their best showing so far, we, the Warriors, should still have a chance in this. What are your thoughts on that?
