Voted for Jrue for VC. Amazing pick up
He has been good this postseason IMO. Overall, I actually thought he was better the first two rounds, although it's tough to judge because we didn't really need to pull out many stops to win this series.
I am giving Jrue a lot of credit for how we executed down the stretch this series; its not just about the plays he made, its about his poise which I presume has rubbed off a bit on the rest of the team.
I am giving Joe credit for managing the end of games competently, and also for our hot starts. Last season, and in '20, we were always getting off to slow starts, not the case this time around. Everybody remembers the end of game 3, but maybe we're not in that position if we don't spot ourselves a 7 point advantage in the opening minutes. That game we took an early 11-4 lead, tonight we went up 14-6 early.
