Certainly on the offensive end...but his 11 minutes defending Jokic were very impactful. Same with Julius. How often does Jokic get held to 6 points in a half? He's going to be fired up to score in the second half though, so we're going to need Rudy and Ju to keep playing him tough.
This teams ceiling is a lot higher without Rudy but the floor is a shit ton lower. Happy they played to the ceiling in the first half

Terrific half for both Ant and Julius...they both mostly made the right decisions when doubled. Not to mention 38 points on efficient scoring. I know we have to be concerned about Ant's knee, but he looked very mobile to me on the boards and with that block. It seems to me that it hurts him more than it hinders or slows him, if that makes sense.

And Rudy had a great Game 1 that was wasted. He's not ideal when you need to mount a huge comeback and we got on a deep hole early.

Upside is so high when they can defend without Rudy.
