If Capela didnt wait in the paint, Hunter would stand no chance. I remember the same with Hunter and Reddish in previous games. This is 90% gameplan, and then 10% Luka forcing it against the double team in the paint when we were down 20+ points.
Fair enough. But Hunter still played great position defense on Luka, staying in front of him. How many times did Luka get past him on his forays to the hoop? Not many. Sure Capela was waiting in the lane, but Luka didn't get to the hoop at will like he usually does, and Hunter had a lot to do with that. I give credit where it's due.
