wiggins and BJ are tall enough to cut off the over the top pass on the driving Tatum. It's a huge pattern foe Tatum.
Its just impressive for me (Nemo) because of all the people you'd expect to be complete perimeter liabilities... Nemo's been really good in limited action. He's smart, he knows how to contest. Off the dribble he's still vulnerable, but the rest of the team is more likely to hedge and help when he's on the perimeter than say, Poole/Curry/Klay. We've actually left those guys on islands on the Celtics top 2 scorers more than I would have guessed, and they're holding up pretty well, all things considered
