Should've, could've, would've. They have beaten us in 4 straight playoff series. They own us.

the first 2 got nothing to do with this team even. a decade and 2 decades ago means something now to you ?

Ok I'll agree with that but the last 2 do count. They still own us.

Just put a taller defender on him and he won't be able to do anything. Once he had to go up against taller defenders in Shamet and Wright, he was basically doing cardio.

last year it went to 7 with half our team hurt. that's not owning. these series are competitive. it's being lost in the margins.

Stop dropping against McConnell on the defensive end.

probably because he's 6'6 with a 6'8 wingspan and doesn't fall for all his herky jerky stuff. Just stay solid go under screens and then contest.

Wright and Shamet put the clamps on him when Thibodeau finally let them step on the court.
