Clint took a time machine back to 2021.

He established a presence at the rim and the Clips never recovered.

Everyone was active with their hands. We made them uncomfortable and forced them into outside shots which they didn’t knock down.

Can they bottle this for Monday night's game?

Vintage CC for sure. Our drop coverage was elite. CC and Bruno brought it on defense.

I agree.  Not sure where this defense has come from.  It's not just Trae being out.  Guys are way more engaged on the defensive end than they have been ever basically.

Also, it really does seem like the game is being officiated differently the last month or so.  We're finally being allowed to play D without ticky tack fouls all the time.
