also mike brown sucks. hopefully he nabs a ring and a parlays it into another head coaching gig. don't want him on the sidelines if kerr ends up going down longterm
They are an all-star team that can overwhelm people so it is tough to try for the entire game. Why Utah scored 67pts in 2nd-3rd Q and 20 in the 4th. It would be hard to be that much better than your opponent and keep a defensive intensity for 4 quarters when you know you can drop 120 either way. This was the case vs Portland last year in a lot of those 2nd rd games.
I don't really buy on/off switch narratives, but when your just that much better than your opponents you kinda can do that.
Maybe they got a 30 point win coming.
