Gryz: As Saffuna said: if Hachimura and someone else double-team Jokic, and Jokic finds the free man, then Davis will be available as rim-protector. It seemed that worked out better for LA, as Davis is a very good rim-protector. |

Mar-26-22 B Korpa vs T Meszaros, 2018 
|
Gryz: If white plays 29 Be5 in the final position, then black plays Bb7, and black has a mate in 10. I think the solution to this problem is to deviate from the game at the 23rd move. White has to play Qxh5, not Bxh6. That gives white a winning advantage (+3.15 according to Houdini). The way |

Gryz: The crucial point of this puzzle is:
