Man Payton is in the doghouse.
As he should be. Ish Smith was destroying him. Can't allow that in playoff games.
this was exactly what folks said before the draft. prtichard's biggest weakness in the nba will be against really quick guards.
i love pritchard, but he has real trouble on defense against really athletic guards.
He didn't even really play. How did he get Distroyed?
He got destroyed plenty in those 4 minutes. Ish looked like an all-star against him. If Stevens had gone back to him and allowed Ish to kill us again in the second half, this place would be going nuts with people calling for him to be fired.
Give Brad credit, he made the right call. I like Pritchard, but this was not the right matchup for him.
