    IMO the team does well when Payne is at the 1 spot or filling in for CP3 atm … speeds up the tempo for them

      CP3 is an old man, creaky too. It’s the big three if you throw ayton + cp3, they’re both half man.

    KD got carried by Booker. He bricked every shot, the game plan of driving to the basket and getting fouls saved him because KDs regular game failed. Boxscore watchers who dont watch games will never understand that.
