Those Dallas bigs are putting in work. Big reason Dallas is back in this game right now. We are going to have to make plays.

We need more Naz Reid in this series, he always kills Dallas and he's playing much much better than KAT and Rudy so far.
He needs 30 mins plus, give KAT and Rudy more rest.

Our bigs need to learn to box out and seal.

There was an old drill we used to do called the shell drill, except we added a seal to it every time. Feel like Gobert and Towns could really learn how to do it.

Should be beat into their heads next practice. Our guards need to board too.

None of them are anything special with regards to size/skill but they are playing much smarter than our bigs and outhustling the crap out of them.

Well she did require I read her a children's book while the game is going on, but she is cheering for the Wolves. :D

Yikes. Ant has been struggling a lot with turnovers too. Need to wake up now!

If we lose, it’s 100% on KAT and Ant. They are really hurting us.

Finch doesn't understand that either. He just ripped Towns a new one.
