Screen brings an extra defender. Late in the game, depending on who your ball handler is, you might not want a screen. No screen was a good idea, Kawhi's read and decision when the double team came, not so good. The foul call, well...I'll let others discuss that


a no-call in the playoffs regardless

chickenspit call

yup that's good coaching

we're still experimenting and Doc gave him a shot the other night
and Coffey earned more PT

Shamet still in
sticks a key 3



PG injury and McGruder overall play finally forced his hand. This man better not play Harrell the entire 4th




I think he did

after regulation, Trezz = team best plus+13

next best Shamet @ plus+6

A screen can also draw more attention to the open man if teams doubled. It was a terrible decision to have him just dribble and no one even close for him to pass it to for a easier look

On one will buy that BS stat tonight. Harrell was terrible the entire second half and no rim protection in OT

You never want Kawhi to just dribble the air out of the ball with no movement or help to get to his spots

Well it's not a terrible decision, this is what coaches all around the league are doing. They might screen in order to get a switch and get a better defensive matchup, but there's nothing terrible about isolation at the top in that situation.

A screen is better than a double without a screen most times, but if you think they might double, then a screen is just bringing a second defender and possibly getting the ball out of the hands of the guy who you want to shoot. Kawhi's read was not the best, he didn't want to give it up, he had the angle to do so if he really wanted to, but he wanted to shoot, it is what it is.

Kawhi shouldn't have settled for the three there.
