"Absorbing all the defensive focus"
Yeah, Mavs were so worried about a guy who shoots 35% in the finals finals with a 49% TS.
Rudy Gay 2.0
Maybe Melo 2.0 at best? If Melo had a team to carry like Taters did
Looked like they cared a little bit by having DJJ, they’re only good defender, glued to him the entire series, and then collapsed their whole defense on Tatum any time he entered the paint, while everyone else on the Celtics had guys like Luka, Kyrie, Washington guarding them
If they really didn’t care, then why not put more defensive focus on the 4 or 5 Celtics players who are better than Tatum? Seems like poor coaching by Kidd.
