Giving CMB a shot is not a awful idea.

Save Scottie's energy.

Those were far from reckless close outs…


Trent had wide open sidestep 3s due to bad closeouts. Green made a tough one for sure.

You’re not gonna play perfect defence on 100% of shots for 48 minutes.

Their 3’s overall have been well defended

Welp we don't have much of a steady frontcourt to begin with! can be a low risk option considering he's an expiring at the end of season :dontknow:

This plus get more leverage. And make earlier contact. When Giannis catches and faces up, back off.

Scottie's scoring is way up when he plays with Mamu. No surprise that a center who doesn't clog the paint and pulls the opposing center away from the basket is having a positive impact on Scottie.

Giannis getting minutes against lineups without Barnes or Poeltl is just idiotic.

Giannis gets away with the most travels/pushoffs in the nba man. He blatently used the ball to push Mamu there

Need prime Kawhi and Gasol back to guard Giannis.

Mamu/CMB came in and gave away the lead all by themselves. Horrible paint defense.

It feels so hopeless having Mamu as the guy in the paint to stop Giannis. Where the **** is our top 10 starting centre

Taking out both Scottie and Poeltl your 2 biggest players and leaving cmb and mamu to get feasted on is ridiculous
