so vulgar.

So triggered over a grown man.

LeBron is 3rd right now, just my opinion.

Don't get your blood pressure so high. I'll acknowledge him if he pulls it off this year.

Kobe's second. Kobe higher than Kareem, Magic and Shaq on his own franchise. Never mind Russell, Wilt, Duncan, Bird, and Big O.

fukk outta here casual. Nobody cares what you think

My prediction:Cleveland in 6

Keys to victory for the Cavs:

Defensively:
1.Switch everything-If GS ends up with a mismatch after the switch and wants to play iso ball,let them...GS strength is body movement/ball movement,not one on one iso ball.

2.Guard against all back door cuts and ball screen slips-When a GS player anticipates a switch or overplay.The counter move is to go back door or slip the screen...Cleveland needs to use the "Lock and Trail" defense on Curry,Thompson,and Durant.

The "Lock and Trail" Defense explained

Definition: A technique in which a defender follows the path of an offensive player receiving an off-ball screen while physically preventing him from cutting backdoor.

Synonyms: Lock and Go

Explanation: The “lock and trail” is the favored defensive technique among most NBA coaches for guarding screens away from the ball. Because pindowns and staggers are so frequent in NBA offenses, the ability to guard these actions is of paramount importance.

Navigating off-ball screens is one of the most difficult jobs on defense due to its reactionary nature: Defenders never really know where the offensive player is going. He could use either of multiple screens in both directions. He could start to use one then cut backdoor. He could cut, stop, then continue sprinting to the three-point line. He could cut backdoor, pivot, and fly off the screen. The possibilites are endless, and the defender has to mimick these movements without committing a foul.

The lock and trail is a defensive attempt to dictate to the offense. In short, it gives an offensive player looking to spring free off a pindown or stagger one option:

Use the screen.

By eliminating the offensive player’s choice, a defender can prepare his teammates for the subsequent action. Even though the lock-and-trail is technically the action of one defender, it’s use sets off a chain reaction of defensive movements to cover its weaknesses.

Most commonly, a lock and trail is used against strong shooters. When an offensive player coming off a stagger or pindown recognizes that a defender is about to trail his path, his natural inclincation is to curl to the rim. With the defender constantly trailing from behind, the offensive player will, at some point, find a path to the rim with his defender not between himself and the basket.

So why would a defense encourage a curl for the easiest shot in basketball?

Two reasons: Firstly, it drives shooters off the three-point line. Would you rather Steph Curry dart out to the three-point line or try to finish around the rim? Even though you might be giving up a potentially easier look that’s closer to the basket, the lock and trail defense, in a properly executed scenario, stations a big in the path of the cutter. Instead of a layup at the rim, the shooter is attempting a mid-range two-pointer or a difficult finish against a rim-protector. And of the league’s elite shooters, most struggle finishing in the paint. 99% of coaches would prefer a J.J. Redikk floater at 10 feet to a J.J. Redikk catch-and-shoot three-pointer.

Well-coached teams will predetermine which players will be locked-and-trailed and rehearse the defense ad nauseum. Even though every NBA player knows how this defense works, even minor slipups in game action leads to a barrage of three-pointers.

3.Transition defense-Get back,stop the basketball,and get out to the shooters.

4.Defensive rebounding-Block out...Limit GS's second opportunities.

5.Communication-When your man is in the process of setting a screen,let him know before the screen contact is made.This will give him an opportunity to react in a timely manner.

6.Never leave Curry/Thompson to double Durant-When during scores 38+ points,GS is 1-6...when Durant takes 22 or more fg's in a game,GS is 10-9....GS offense is at it's most explosive when Curry/Thompson are hitting 3's...The defensive strategy should be built around containing Curry/Thompson.

7.Keep a body on Curry/Thompson at all times-When GS gets an offensive rebound.Curry/Thompson will run to another spot behind the 3 pt line.When Curry/Thompson misses a shot in the paint area and GS gets the offensive rebound.Curry/Thompson will run back out to the 3 pt line...Continue to chase Curry/Thompson even on missed shots

8.Make D.Green a scorer-Don't ever double team Green.


Offensively:

1.Lebron needs to be aggressive taking the ball to the basket-Collapse GS defense,then pass it to the open shooter..The warriors will sometimes "stunt" on Lebron's drives to the basket.Forcing him to prematurely give up the basketball when he could've just driven the ball all the way to the basket.

What is a "Stunt"
(A “stunt” is when a defender quickly lunges at an offensive player that is not his assignment before jumping back to his man.)

2.Limit the Turnovers-Lebron every so often will have a high turnover game against GS...The 3 main causes for LBJ's turnover are:

A.Long lazy looping passes to K.Love in the paint.
B.Cross court passes.
C.Passing the ball back to the 3 pt shooter after GS "stunts"...GS is able to cut the ball off because they did not fully commit to the double team,they only "stunted".

3.K.Love needs to play like an all-star(22p/12r)

4.G.Hill needs to be offensive minded-Take the ball right at Curry...No hesitation on open shots...Come of the screens looking to score....He's a good shooter.

5.TT,Nance,and Green need to stay aggressive

6.Cleveland needs to hit 40% of their 3 ptfg attempts-Especially Korver,Smith,and Love.

7.Wild Cards:Clarkson and Hood...If we can get a couple of double-digit scoring games from either one of them,that would be a tremendous boost.....I know it hasn't happened yet.But maybe the familiarity of playing a Western Conference team will like a fire under them.

8.Coach Lue-Put the right offensive,and defensive combinations on the court.Make the timely adjustments/substitutions.Call timeouts when necessary.Give Hood an opportunity to redeem himself.

Cavs in 6.
