Was that Muskieman sitting next to Bill Murray?

X has gone cold from 3.
Low, low IQ ball from X, or they'd be up by double digits. X has a huge advantage in the post, in personnel and depth, yet, they've taken more 3s than 2's. Johnnies will allow that all day.
Tre , Gates and JP are 2-10 from 3 while Q, Kante, Marshall and Scruggs are 4 for 5.

Lost both the first 4 minute War and the lead because they wouldn't work it inside and settled for open threes too soon in the shot clock which they did not convert.

Let's hope Chris works the same Magic in the second half after the first media timeout that he did in the first half.

Now that #5 has passed the second best #10 to become #3, maybe he'll settle down, catch on fire, and dominate the rest of this game.

Johnnie's can get a lab on X whenever they want. I'd just play a 2-3, and pray they miss their treys. They have no real post game to speak of, and shoot poorly from 3 land, until they play X. This team just does not guard at all.
