Rewatching the last defensive sequence for the Kings. Suns intentionally got Booker switched onto Hield, but Chris Paul took a long time to get into the play.
Booker probably had Hield beat around the corner, but chose to step back with shot clock winding down. – 1:28 AM

Said that last 6 minutes was playoff basketball and brought back memories of how they played.

I see. After a 1-2 start with good 1st halves and bad 2nd halves, the Kings’ gameplan tonight was to just switch that.
On a serious note, Kings are much more handsy on defense, which leads to transition opportunities. And the ball is moving in the half court. – 11:26 PM
