After the game, Zion was asked about how the Spurs tried to do all they could to deny him from going to his preferred left side. Williamson attempted his best to be modest, but in the end, he just had to drop a truth bomb about this particular defensive scheme against him: “In the basketball terms that’s a hard question to answer, I guess without sounding cocky because when you’re out there it’s like telling somebody to stop Giannis from going to the basket or stop Curry from shooting threes,” Williamson said. “I mean, this is basketball. You’re taught to get to your spots. It’s just about the setup. “If they forcefully want to push me right, I’m gonna go right because I have shooters. So I’m still able to get to the basket, it’s just how I get there. … It’s not as easy as it looks. Let me say that. It is hard at some points but with my shooters, it makes it easier.”
