Probably only watching this game because Blake is fukking awesome and Austin is bound to do some stupid shyt, but I've never been excited about Phoenix

P.J. Tucker and Prigioni are cool guys tho, savvy defenders

Seeing Andre Miller try and guard Curry reminded me of myself when I guard someone way better than me Just try and grab a handful or jersey as they blow by then get mad at the defense for not helping

Curry. Nothing needs to be said.

Shabazz needs more minutes. The team needs Rubio. Other than that, tonight was a big ol bag of

A lot of the top athletes in the world practice tho fam, Curry not only works harder than them on his craft but to me it' must be a kind of hereditary trait for him to have that kind of muscle memory. I don't think any of those guys you listed will be able to do what Curry does, and I think it'll be a long time before we see a player who can do what Curry does ever again. Curry one of the few point guards in nba history who actually lead a team to a championship and won.

It's not hereditary, he's also a very good golfer which lets you know he's exceptional when it comes to the repetition of motion.




This dude would be a pro golfer if it weren't for basketball.

Warriors definitely run plays but a lot of it is simple P&R w/ Steph and Green or Steph handing the ball off to a guard/forward, moving baseline and running through double and triple screens. Also, guys like Draymond and Iggy will run a lot of P&R double screens for Curry where his defender gets caught by the screener and the help defender is caught by the second screen. It's really fairly simple what they do, it's just that Curry literally only needs about 3 inches of space and is pulling up and hitting from literally ANYWHERE And oh if he decides to drive he happens to be one of the best finishers in the league and basically doesn't miss from inside 5 feet and oh being that they play 5 out in the 4th quarter, players are hesitant to close out

IMO, teams need to start hard trapping Steph at half court sort of like how Miami played in the ECF. Force the ball out that lil nikka's hands and MAKE other guys beat you. I would pack the paint and give guys like Draymond and Iggy an open lane daring them to shoot jumpers. Also, I would back off Barnes a bit as he's shooting terribly from 3. Strangely enough, their best 3pt shooter after Curry has been Draymond

Also, teams HAVE to make them pay on the offensive glass. It boggles my mind that they get away with Draymond and Iggy at C and PF to close games and teams haven't figured out how to punish their size

cause it feeds their break and thats when klay and steph get wide open 3's with iggy and draymond leading the break while the big guys are still stuck in the back court

theres not that many good big men left today
