seems like garrett would have matched up well with niang, although I'm sure he still would have gotten his

He might have been better than Hale was on him, but he would've gotten bullied more than Norris or Coop would have IMO. I think Coop was the only one who could've held his own physically against him. Zone was the best way to contain him, and they had the shooters to beat the zone. They're a very tough matchup for just about any team.

Was anyone a little surprised we went away from the zone in the last 10 min of the 2nd half? Even though they hit a couple 3s on it, it still seemed like our best chance defensively. It seemed to frustrate them into making bad decisions half the time.
