Rudy Guarded Luka Better than Any PHX Wing

Lol yeah, it does not.

Surprised at how little Gobert actually got switched onto Doncic overall.

Ayton had really good FG% defense stats on Doncic, but DAL scored a ton of team points with Ayton on him.

Stats wise Royce was actually the best lmao. 49.5 partial possessions guarded (who knows what that really means) and Luka only got 7 shots off and their team only scored 36 points. Only player to hold Dallas under 1 point per partial possession while guarding Luka.

It's pretty crazy how badly Luka abused Mikal Bridges in that series.
 
Let's not forget the fact that Luka was coming off the injury and needed time to get really rolling.
 
agree that Rudy guarded Luka better. what makes me wonder is why we didn't play him longer. DFS and bullock, Dallas best defenders played 40-44 minutes in that series. Rudy OTOH never played more than 37 minutes. quin should've ramped up Rudy's minutes, this is playoff basketball and we need him on defense.
