Small-Ball Antidote???

[The Jom]

I think it’s all about Gobert and KAT, but mainly Gobert. Minny does have the horses for small ball. If they play that way though, they’re wasting their max player(s) as they are sitting on the bench if small ball is their best lineup. 

Its not a big deal for us to sit Gafford if we needed. We’re the ones with the elite offense and best guards in the NBA

If they go small our guys feast at the rim 

It feels like we’re at the point where WE will be dictating how the game goes. Clippers will sit Zubac just like we would sit Powell. Desperation and lack of better options

You had me all the way to sitting Zubac. That’s exactly what I posted this thread to refute. I believe we would DESTROY them in a centerless battle. I suspect by game 3 they will run whatever rotation maximizes the minutes of Gafford and Lively.
