Book wuz the main Sun during games 2 and 3 and there has been no answer on this yet except :

During game 1, Russ told Lue to let him cover Book during the second half when Book scorched EG. That shift worked out and later on Russ had a game winning D vs Book in the end. Russ did not draw Book on game 3 was perhaps the team wanted to conserve his fouls wherein Russ had 2 early on during game 2.

The take foul would have meant 2 foul shots and possession but instead the suns scored in the ensuing play, if my recollection is correct.

Now that is coach with grit, considering it was just a regular season game compared to Ty on this game 3.

Okay…

I definitely wouldn’t do that. I’d much quicker role the dice with Leonard, who has #1 potential, than roll the dice with far lesser players, who can also get struck with injury.

Kawhi Leonard’s absence is latest definition of an empty Clippers era

Not a franchise player but a young player and solid player who can support PG. I’m just done with this load management culture.
