Good article for those who didn't think the big guy did his job yesterday and also for those wondering why Brimah didn't play as much as you would expect.

Phil has certainly found his niche: set good screens, get tough boards, and go after every looseball. For a guy who a lot of people were like "hmmm he has some nice post moves and a soft touch but he's a bit too much finesse" last year he has become an unlikely bruiser. How often have we seen this guy mix it up vs dudes twice his size in the paint? Guys like him and Kromah win you titles.

You can see he is becoming more confident. I'm glad we have 2+ more years to develop him alongside AB, and Facey. They should be a really good three man front court next season

Amazing improvement in setting screens for PN. Five to six games ago, he was either setting ineffectual screens or moving and getting an offensive foul.

Most unexpected clutch rebound since McCombs against G'town?
