It’s A Splash Bros Reunion! Are You Kuminga To The Poole Party? Warriors 2022 Season Thread

I hope Wiseman has been taking notes from Looney and Beli. We don’t need him to be a star any time soon we just need him to use his size to rebound and play good defense

Bjelica’s defense in the playoffs has been shocking to me.

miami has much more intense ball pressure. they will play a 3-2 zone with jimmy, bam, and tucker up front. bam is like a bigger version of draymond and even have guards that will really get up into you. the warriors are a good defense team too but its not nearly as intense as miami. you see the celtics getting the shots they want much easier. the warriors defense is more just being in the right spot at all times and they dont have a rim protector. miami tries to bully you.

Yet...

Let’s step on their throats Monday

 

[Don Homer]

people keep saying he needs to "step up" like he's not playing elite defense and becoming the best offensive rebounder in the playoffs and still giving his usual 17-20ppg isnt "stepping up"

If we come in locked in at home on Monday and take a 3-2 lead, i bet the celtics fold

Continue to have faith brehs, that's what got us the win on Friday

If they get these same looks at home they gotta go down

He does need to step up.

It's hilarious how you're saying he's given his usual "17-20 ppg" when he's actually only averaging 16 ppg in the Finals (on 15 shots, nonetheless, which is inefficient; the league-average TS is 57% and he's only 51% in the Finals - that should give you a scale on how inefficient he's been). Klay is averaging 17 points on 16 shots, and everyone would say he needs to step up on offense too. Wiggins has been left open and is typically against the softest matchup, and yet he's still not capitalizing on it. They need him to be better in that capacity. And his defense hasn't been elite either.

He's been busting his ass trying to do the little things, and that is commendable (especially given one of the main criticisms about his game was he wasn't trying hard enough), but he needs to provide Steph with some offensive help, as does everyone else on the squad.

Not mad - just stating the facts.

The fact you couldn't counter with anything proves you acknowledge that too.

I didn’t read it tbh. No one got time for all that.

Wiggins is hooping. Idk why you’re in your feelings about it
