Well, I guess, what do you see there with Brunson that we're not seeing the, you know, the, the 50% shooting, uh, 40% shooting from three, things like that, and it's so much lower?
4:53
Um, I, I just think what the Spurs are doing in, in terms of showing him bodies and, yeah, I, I...
4:59
To your point about the shooting percentage, I looked it up, um, this morning, and his effective field goal percentage for the series, I, I want to say is around 43 or so percent.
5:09
Um, that's not only the lowest of any playoff series of his career, it's lowest by a, a significant amount.
5:15
So this is by far the least efficient that he has ever been, and that is including last night, which was, believe it or not, his most efficient shooting game.
5:23
Um, you know, I thi- f- the way I, I phrased it, I think it's two things.
5:28
Number one, um, the Spurs have some very, very high level defenders.

Mm-hmm.
14:54
What do you think?
14:55
I mean, something that I've wondered as we have seen up- really up until now, the starting lineup underperform for the last two years is a question of role and guys wondering, you know, where are my,um, are my shot attempts gonna be there tonight or am I, or is this gonna be a night where ...

A- and I think having OG Anunoby, you know, kind of grab that number three baton and run with it, I, I think has been great for him and I think it's been great for the team.
15:28
I was just looking up before, if you look in the NBA they have stats for points per touch.
15:33
And among players in the postseason who are playing at least 20 minutes a game, OG Anunoby is fourth behind, uh, SGA, Victor Wembanyama and, and Dillon Brooks, who loves to shoot it.
15:44
Um, that's pretty good.
15:46
You know? So i- he, he's doing well with his allotted usage.
