First game was a great appetizer.

I just more mean this isn't a team you can go down 2-0 to IMO. If you don't split one of the first two you're probably cooked.


LAC up 3-1 didn't go so well 5 years ago either


Not remotely the same. This team actually has mental toughness, a lot of dogs and defenders, more competent coaching.

That's the one thing he's done bad at. When Jokic moves out to 3 he's very slow contest. Likely doesn't wanna get beat with the pass.

Hardens best attribute on defense is his strength in the post so it makes sense.
