Something I'd like to know. This has been happening all series too.
Paul takes the ball up and Schroder stays with him the whole way. Paul barely gets it over by the 17 or 16 mark (near 8 second violations). This gives us much less time to setup a play.

Why isn't Booker or Bridges coming with him so he can pass it out and get it up quicker? Then give it back.

Payne can at least outrun Schroder and not get stuck

We need to let Paul handle as much as possible or even Payne. They know to trap Book which forces very bad passes. Booker good when moving quick but not dribbling around too much or he gets into trouble.

They can't guard Cam. I can't believe he missed that.

Imagine being a Lakers fan and chanting "REFS YOU SUCK". Some serious cognitive dissonance there.
