4/5 🧵 That lack of secondary creation is making Atlanta’s defense look even nastier. With everyone else often standing and waiting, the Hawks can load up on Brunson, blitz him, send doubles, and force him into ugly shots. The article points to Dyson Daniels and Nickeil Alexander-Walker as major problems here. In Game 3, Brunson went just 3-for-11 and 0-for-3 from deep when guarded by those two. Worse, he’s also getting picked up full court, which means he’s burning energy before the offense even starts.
