Ariza is gonna be on Paul all day Yeah, Nate Robinson has been on the job for 3 hours and he already has more sense than the morons at TNT
Ariza, Brewer, and Johnson on him. But if he's slowed down from his hammy, you could even have Harden guard him
You have to attack Paul, don't let him rest on defense. That hammy is only going to get worse with strenuous physical activity.
No one knows how they try to defend Paul, but it should be interesting to see what they come up with. I can't imagine Terry guards Paul for any significant length of time. Paul's hamstring is a huge concern for the Clips.
Reddick is probably their second best pg (he's a combo) after Paul and he gives Harden fits... McDaniels broke his wrist so Prigioni and Johnson need to step it up...
Would love to see Harden take the initiative and guard him for extended periods. I think we will see Harden-Brewer-Ariza-Smith-Howard a lot more this series.
