Just watched all of the Reggie highlights. https://youtu.be/_FSgc2r0MZg?si=CCukujW2fHuszAJI

He’s brilliant at the execution today. He forced switches onto the weakest defenders Harden and Norm Powell.

This forces Zu to hedge. Zu was completely exposed. He never jumped on any of the passes.

We learned that Zu cannot play as the center if it requires hedging. You need a guy like Nerlens Noel. A center that can actually jump and tip passes while at the hedge point. It’s not that hard.

Also learned that Harden and Norm are huge negatives on defense. Cannot stop any dribble penetration.

So Clippers need to find another RoCo / Batum. It’s Amir Coffey or Kobe in my opinion.

    We all know Norm, Harden suck at defense,. Zu got completely cooked by the simple PnRs. Ty did nothing to adjust the entire game.
