They put Smart on Draymond which is a great adjustment.

Draymond is the engine for their offense and with smart guarding Draymond it takes away the advantage of a 4 or 5 guarding green

They sitting close AF like COVID said "Ill take a break for now"

 

[smitty22]

Two halves, bozo.

That -10 he at right now, he won’t be playing much the 2nd half dodo.

 

[ryderldb]

Gonna be real bad if the warriors lose game 1

 

[GOAT]

on one play, he was locked up by curry and then passed to smart for a very shytty shot

fortunately smart hit it somehow...but this is not gonna work long term

No he wasn't. . As soon as he caught it against Steph in the mid post, Smart's defender came right over, and the rim protector rotated over. Basically three guys on him and he made the right pass.

@Serious, where you at breh!

Just got home, was stuck in traffic

 

[Lord Beasley]

Smart is impressive man. he can effectively switch and guard 4 of the 5 warriors on the court at any time. and he's even on looney's hip if needed

the celts played amazing team defense in that 2nd tho

The lack of basketball knowledge really rears it's head during the Finals when the casuals show up. If you aren't scoring, you apparently aren't making an impact. Tatum has 7 assists to no turnovers and has the highest +/- in the game. He's controlling the offense for the C's and got them settled down. Two years ago, he'd have chucked up shots against multiple defenders and yall would shyt on him for not being a playmaker. Now he's recognized how he's being defended and finding the open man every time

Meanwhile nikkas was harping that Jordan fukking Poole is GS's second best player

 

[Jplaya2023]

nikkaz want Kerr to be Thibs and shyt

Yeah thibbs ruined d gawds career

 

[SAINT]

Better defense by cs switch force them to iso

Miami baits teams into the slot so they can get stripped

MKE baits you to launching 3’s

and Celtics bait you into iso’s

The three best teams in the league this year. I stand by it

 

[Biscayne]

That Mayhem commercial.

 

[Morethan1]

Yall shyttin on wig offense but his defense been great

 

[Rekkapryde]

Smitty and Regular P be finding ways to Spy vs Spy every day

 

[Raquinotj]

Gotta keep on going at Curry. They can’t hide him.

 

[Don'tCallMeLuckyB]

and great defensive possessions forcing turnovers/more difficult shots.

Absolutely as well. I can’t downplay boston d. Boston up and Tatum only scored 2 points in the 2nd qrt.
