Can they, like, play D on Lillard?
Is it possible?

They did in the first half—doubled him off screens so he had no open looks.

Can I go back to my WE NEED BIGS mantra?

We have Kanter, who had a really good first half, but of course Brad is sticking with Theis, even though he's getting killed.

I don't know that our defence was that good on him. He missed a lot of shots he tends to make, which he is now making.

We have a legit big who is not getting played, despite being a much better Nurkic matchup than Theis

So Whiteside can literally face-guard screen guys on the perimeter now??
With all the illegal sealing Theis gets away with it feels a bit hypocritical to get too mad about that

Sealing isn't illegal as long as you're not moving with it.

This is where you need someone who can come off your bench and make some 3's - but this has hurt them all season.

When is Stotts gonna bench Lillard? Because that's what coaches do, right? Bench hot players? Or is that just our coach?

That's just our boy genius coach. Try and put him in foul trouble if he keeps defending Tatum, I guess?
