The 3 and the outlet pass were really bad, along with the messed up switch that led to the Okogie dunk. However, the team defense really, really suffered with Norm, not with Russ. Norm also somehow managed more turnovers. We might also mention Harden, Ty and Zu here with not-so-great performances. I think it’s all of them combined rather than going ALL CAPS on Russ

Ugly but very important win. Thx Kawhi, PG and T-Mann! For Russ, Zu and Ty, there’s some video to study for the next matchup. They all got the capacity to be much better. Not that it hurt much, Zu’s minutes still a neutral, Russ +5 but they could both be +10 easily

You almost single-handedly welcomed these guys back into this game. This CANNOT happen anymore!

Individual mistakes, sure but with the games we get from Kawhi, PG, Mann and the shooting and free throws, this should never be close. Just stifle their offense
