Yea I saw when Book got popped by Gobert mainly because @theIVpointplay has highlighted that for a while now as a set play we do.
Tbh every time it works I just shake my head wondering if the other team doesn't watch film. Book getting popped, not cool but my immediate reaction was finally the opposing big was ready for Book smh

Next time we play the Jazz, Book should pop Gobert in his lady parts on the first play of the game.

Klay isn't a little guy.
But Booker is?

He's bang on average for his position, which is the second smallest position on the court. That counts as a little guy to me.

I also should've initially said that Steph and Klay are outliers in this situation since they're probably 2 of the best 5 shooters of all time. So even if we try to equate Klay and Booker in a size comparison, we can't ignore how much better shooters the Warriors were.

Book and Klay are basically the same size and they play the same position. Steph is a little taller than CP3, but Paul is much stronger. Than makes them comparable, IMO.

I'm not arguing your initial point - that we need a good DA to be championship contenders - I'm just calling out a bad argument.

Great way to persevere though Mitchell tried the game and went to OT. Suns didn't give up and got a huge win.
