​@@Gvvenk Game 5 / 6 rockets were blowing defensive assignments all over the place. That, and when they doubled Curry, he mad the correct basketball play and got the roleplayers open shots which they knoccked down. For whatever reason games 3/4 they played much better defense and Curry / Thompson missed shots. With all the flopping/whining Harden/CP3 did the rest of their team were super physical/grabby. Some of the stuff Tucker was doing was borderline dirty / reminiscent of 1980's BBall. Pushing people in mid air and such. CP3 was caught sliding his foot underneath Klay and Igoudola.. wonder if that was in the back of Currys mind affecting his shot. Warriors are used to teams being physical (aka holding/grabbing/pushing) treatment after facing the Cavs and others in the past, so it's not as effective as it once was, but it still makes a difference. This almost looked like a pre-season game in terms of intensity.

This is pretty much the easiest way to lose to the Warriors...

@Greg first of all chill the F out. Second of all, it is true Terry Stotts had a reason for his defensive strategy, and on hindsight it is easy to criticize so if that is your point, it is well taken (by me at least). However, it still holds true that you want to take away the biggest strengths of a team and make them beat you in a different way. That being said, teams like Cavs and Rockets have had some success denying the perimeter to Curry (obviously not good enough since Warriors always end up winning).

The warriors just have too many good players, Durant easily gives them an edge, that can only be matched by Giannis, Kawhi and Harden, Curry gives then edge that can only be matched by Giannis, Harden and Kawhi and Clay is a great third option better than every other teams 2nd option, Draymond Green is better than a lot of 2nd option players, and then the role players are better than every other role player so their weakness is rebounds but they have Draymond for that so they are way too good to beat.

Why would you ever let the greatest shooter in the HISTORY of the NBA take un-contested 3's on pick n rolls.

Warriors might do the give-n-go routine and find those open spaces anyway. Defenders tend to relax when the ones they're guarding pass the ball. Warriors would use that moment to hurriedly find an open space and then attack.

Although skeptical at first, after the first few minutes the BBallBreakdown fans finally decided to accept the fact that Coach Nick was changing the background song without any prior notice. Deep down they knew that it would be alright, and that since it was a decent jam, Coach would be able to hear them shaking their heads, not out of disapproval , but because they were dancing

I was pleased to hear you feel the same about starting Collins. I wonder if Stotts is thinking the same thing. We need to be able to switch on defense and space the floor on offense.

This music was straight fire

Just hand the man some fan shoes and basketball to sign while you’re at it Stotts. God damn he had so much room to shoot. That’s crazy I can’t believe I didn’t pay that much attention to something so huge in 2018. It just makes you question how are some people really coaches
