The problem, if he ain't going to shoot it, is that he's not moving either Looney or Green in the post. So you're left with him as the screener rolling to the basket and the problem with that is huerter, barnes, etc are choking on the 3's I think I'd tell him to take a dribble and shoot it so it feels more like a regular basketball move rather than something like Brick sitting at the 3 point line shrinking while the crowd groans. Give Kerr credit as he's totally gotten into Sac's offense by doing this and putting Green on Fox (and also they're lucky as hell Fox is hurt, he clearly looked like the fracture impacted his dribble and shot as the game went on)
Good god, is Bron really shooting 17% from 3 in this series? That’s worse than Vando and we all know he can’t shoot worth a s*** from 3. Stop chucking Bron.
Warriors are experienced and versatile , Kings are newbies and unidimensional . Warriors blow up the Sabonis DHO game and leave him with two choices : take the midrange J or go at Looney/Green with your limited size and post game moves . He keeps taking the wrong decision because he's not used to take the J
Julius Randle & Joel Embid both injured. Giannis already eliminated... D@mn C-Bags may be getting a fast pass to the Finals...
You sleeping on Miami! They usually have had their number they play and match up very well against them and Miami seems to have caught fire at the right time
Not overlooking Miami at all. Was just noting Teams with significant injuries in the East.. Hopefully, Butler wasn't just added to that list.
C-bags were going to the Finals regardless . The hope is the Heat can give them a tough physical in the ECF as they did last season . I still think Tatum and Brown aren't ready to beat the Warriors or Lakers in the clutch . They will win it all only if they face the Nuggets ( or Suns)
HATE at the end of games we run down the clock when we have a lead. I get the theory behind that at least get a good shot, not a chucked 3.
Thought it would be better this series without Brooks but now we have to watch Green and Poole. OMG no one wonder those two got in a fight - they're both so irritating to watch.
Pooles level of flopping plus pouty face takes the irritation to another level. He just literally flails his arms and legs wide like he's doing contemporary dance to get a call. Like he totally chicken wings Fox here with the off arm which is supposed to be an offense foul but then flops like an actual chicken to the get the call. Did a similar thing to Dlo for the 4 point "play"
Have a feeling tonight is the night we’re on fire from 3, yet don’t do much else right, and get smoked. Wish we could save our hot shooting nights for games where we’re running on all cylinders.
I expect a loss. The Warriors HAVE to win it, they are horrible on the road. If we’re down big, that’s alright… make sure you don’t play Bron and AD too much. If we’re on fire early, great. If not go back to LA relatively fresh and healthy. I think we can win this in 6.
Only "goal" I have is to make Steph work. He looked fatigued at the end of Game 7 and everyone keeps mentioning Lakers fatigue due to Lebron being ancient but it the Dubs who haven't had rest and Steph, Klay, Green are all 34, 32, 32 respectively.
we have to make him defend. i love that vando makes him have to work hard for shots, but it's got to be constant. wherever they try to hide/rest him, we need to go there.
The Warriors have found their huckleberry patsy, and his name is Austin Reaves. They’re gonna go at him defensively until he proves otherwise.
If Mo Bamba can't even get in during garbage time, I would have much rather that we kept Pat Bev. Thompson and Curry are running wild.
It's always on script for the road team to get blown out in game 2 after winning game 1. Team needs to figure out Draymond defending Davis and Curry attacking on-ball.
