00:00Did it surprise anybody?
00:01It's going up against Marc Gasol with due respect to Sacramento.
00:12It's a difficult ask by any stretch.
00:15And the way that they defended him in Toronto along with Marc Gasol
00:21was effective on that night.
00:24And Sacramento came at Joel like we spoke about in our pregame
00:29press and double teamed him and kind of everybody else as often as they could.
00:35And I thought we did, he did a pretty good job of playing out of the post and
00:40finding open shooters.
00:42I mean, the reality is we missed 2,000, I believe it was, 2,002 open threes.
00:50And he did a great job of passing.
00:52For him to come out the way that he did, it shouldn't surprise anybody.
00:56What was the biggest difference for Matisse tonight versus any other recent game?
