What a choke job. Utah gets punked out by someone named Terance Mann.
It was a matter of time before midnight struck and Snyder realized he's Quin Snyder.
Tried every bit of reverse psychology that I could. Unreal that Kawhi goes down and Utah can't beat the Clippers.
I'm a huge Jazz fan, but they went soft in this series. Their perimeter defense is terrible and the whole defensive scheme relies on Gobert cleaning up everyone's mess. O'neal is the only one that gives consistent effort on defense. The Clippers took advantage of that by putting 5 three point shooters out there and either forced Gobert out of the paint, or got wide open 3s whenever he had to help in the paint. Utah didn't have a single guy that could guard George, Jackson, or Mann off the dribble tonight. Just zero toughness or hustle the entire 2nd half, with a 25 point lead, in game 6 of the playoffs.
Georges couldn't defend any of the 6 Clippers that played major minutes tonight.
Gotta give the Clips credit, they have put on a Smallball clinic against both the Mavs and Jazz, especially without Kawhi.
They've got a great roster to go "small", especially with Leonard. Morris and Batum as bigs are both great shooters and have the height/strength to hold their own defensively and rebounding wise. George and Leonard are obviously big strong guards as well.
