In his garbage time minutes in the Lakers series McGrady's defense actually looked good. It may have been because the Lakers had given up and were going through the motions, but it might be worth having him active to put more length on the court if Kawhi is going to guard Curry more. You'll need a longer person to guard Thompson. Hopefully Tiago's ready to go and the point is moot. IMHO the biggest problem we had was rebounding. They had so many 2nd chance points that combined with their high shooting percentage it was amazing that we were close enough to even make the miraculous comeback. Tiago's rebounding would have been big in the last game.
