00:00You see Jalen Brunson is guarded by the best, one of the best perimeter defenders in the NBA.
00:04Might make all defense again.
00:05Might make all defense again.
00:07Was second in defensive player of the year voting last year.
00:09So we know how good he is.
00:11And he might give Jalen Brunson the most problems out of any defender, at least in the Eastern Conference, I
00:16will say.
00:17So watch what Dyson Daniels is able to do here.
00:20Look at how he moves.
00:21Not fouling.
00:23Hands down.
00:24Like, just ridiculous.
00:25I know he's 6'7", but not everyone who's 6'7 is going to move his feet like this.
00:29On somebody with the craftiness of Jalen Brunson.
00:32Jalen Brunson's getting to where he wants to go in terms of the spots, but Dyson Daniels is making him
00:36have to work.
00:37But now he's in trouble here.
00:39So you're in the paint.
00:4011 seconds left on the shot clock.
00:43Everyone's ball watching.
00:44Nobody's, like, cutting, moving around the perimeter.
00:46Like, we're just, okay, it's Brunson isolation time against Dyson Daniels, which I don't know how much you want to
00:52do that in this series.
00:53I wouldn't.
00:54Because when you get in a situation where Brunson, as great as his footwork is, once he gives up his
00:58dribble here,
00:59Dyson Daniels still, even, he never reaches.
01:01Even when he gets him up in the air with a head fake, right?
01:03But he knows he can recover.
01:04That's why he bites on it.
01:06Because Jalen Brunson's also, like, nowhere close to 6'7".
01:09So it's not like he's going to reach around and then all of a sudden have an up and under
01:12and a look at the rim.
01:13Like, he just knows that.
01:14He's like, all right, cool.
01:15I can contest here.
01:16And then I'm still, look, I'm still here.
01:18Look, still right there with him.
01:20He almost blocks the shot.
01:22Yeah, almost.
01:22Yeah.
01:24That's an impressive defensive play.
01:25All right.
