They Lakers double teamed him and greatly slowed him down and also took the ball out of his hands...!

They need to do this more to the other teams hot players...!

For whatever it exposed, it also showed them the path to fix it...!

But isn't that the whole point - that we are not able to sufficiently contain big fast wings with single coverage? And that other teams are forcing us to double team thus making us decide whom to leave open? (Jaylen? Hayward? Kemba?)

Doubles against good shooting teams are a problem - as the numbers showed, Kuz was able to "slow" Tatum but the Celtics scored at a very high clip in those minutes, likely because the Lakers were sending help

We don't play defense on a string, that is our weaknesses. A player with ball handling skills dan slices our defense up.
