Instead, Schenn’s goal was the last time the Blues looked remotely interested in scoring for the remainder of the game.
Absolutely Schenn-sational. #s...

A reoccurring theme in the NBA playoffs these days is the selective non-guarding of specific players. Ever since the San Antonio Spurs picked on Dwayne Wade in back to back NBA Finals , offensive players that can’t shoot have become a resource for defenses trying to figure out how to stop superstars like Steph Curry, LeBron James, or James Harden with help defense.
