Getting inside the mind of Nick Nurse: 4 predictions for ways Toronto may counter attack

The Sixers went into Toronto and surprised a lot of people. With some crucial adjustments by Brett Brown and some stifling defense, the team changed the course of the series and stole home court. I like to look at the stats for these games to see if there are any patterns, (Kawhi Leonard scores a lot) but I prefer to watch film when we’re dealing with one or two crucial games because the stats are mostly of the small-sample variety. For example, the Toronto starters went a combined 9-33 from downtown, many of them clean looks especially for Danny Green.
