It can slow down a game to a screeching hault as we saw in the third quarter of some games in the first round of Clippers-Spurs. Gregg Popovich would sometimes go to that strategy in the third quarter which made the games tough to [...]

Saturday night’s Spurs-Clippers game 7 was an instant classic. It’s a shame that had to be played in the first round, as that had a Conference Finals feel to it.
