This has been outlier season for Wiggins and this series in particular. He's always been immensely talented, but never seemed to give consistent effort. The Warriors' coaching staff have transformed him into an elite role player. I would expect another 15-20 point game from him on Thursday.
Last night was a pretty vintage Klay game. He's been a clutch playoff performer his entire career. He missed two seasons with serious injuries, so he's been very hot or cold this year as he's knocked off the rust. He actually has a reputation for being a lights out shooter in Game 6s.

Seemed like they’re running a zone defense without good communication/awareness. Getting caught up on articles from the regular season, apparently it’s been working well for them? But last night they looked lost.
Wait, Smart won DPOY playing in a zone?

It's not a resurgence. It's something you see maybe once a game and only for short spurts because it usually doesn't work.

It's done more as a change of pace option or to minimize a certain aspect of your opponent's offense.

Yes, because it doesn't actually work on NBA players

Are we sure that wasn’t Fake Klay pouring them in last night?

Didn't they take it off the board 3 minutes later?

That part is bad but I never saw anything definitive that his heel was out of bounds.

I think them coming back 5 minutes later made it way worse. I never saw anything definitive either but it was such a gut punch when those points came off the board.
