No switch and we make a damn stop. What do you know?

That was elite on-ball defense by Dennis.

I love Walter's resilience. He can struggle, but he never gets shaken. He always finds a way to contribute, even when his shots aren't falling.

Another negative byproduct of all this damn switching is it leaves 6-2 guards blocking out post players on 3-point attempts. Most of their offensive rebounds/second chances this half have come in those situations.

The Refs are lesser enemies to us than we are to ourselves.

This team screws itself.
