CP like I want my fukkin ring.:ufdup:

Tbh Booker has been ass for the last few games as has Crowder. Crowder is due for his five 3s outta nowhere type game....so Suns still has shyt in reserve

Ayton is on a mission too
I agree.Booker has looked out of rhythm since gm 1 of the Clippers series.He's still putting up a decent scoring average, but the game's not coming to him right now.It's high volume/poor efficiency scoring.A bit chaotic.

Lol u a hooper huh? Giannis puttin up 80 on u, U would never wanna play the game again

No shyt a NBA player would put 80 on a random coli nikka. :dead:

That's not the point. The point is that a lot of hoopers that really put the time in to work on their game and understand the nuances of the game, don't like Giannis' game. He's getting by off of his physical gifts.

I don't particularly dislike Giannis but I fully understand why dudes wouldn't.

In reality you sound like a fakkit my friend, not me.

It's not just coli nikkas shytting on his game. It's okay if other nikkas disagree with you, it's too early in the morning to be acting like a bytch. :ehh:

It is straight up physical gifts and athleticism that has gotten him to his far. Dude has a motor and he has heart and desire. Basketball skill wise, I can't even say he's a one trick pony. He dives into the lane like it's a mosh pit and shyt just happens.

I think it was Chris Broussard that said that the difference between neutralizing Giannis in the regular season vs the playoffs is that in the playoffs, players will be willing to take those charges whereas in the regular season, they'll slide out of the way.

Trap/blitz the 1-5 pick and roll (to get the ball out of CP hands, make him a passer, and not a shooter/driver)

Switch the 2-5 pick and roll with Book and Ayton, with Portis (Portis can actually move his feet, or blitz that Pick and roll, force the ball out of Book's hands)

Make Crowder/Myles/Craig, hit shots.

Clog the paint.

Giannis plays the 5 in the 2nd quarters (go small ball when Ayton goes to the bench) and switch all pick and rolls, clog the paint.

Lopez needs limited time this series unless he's being used to blitz/trap the 1-5 pick and roll in the 1st quarter



Buds need to try a big line-up. Portis and Lopez can be in the game at the same time. Giannis and Middleton at the 1 and 2.

Bucs are playing Lopez and Giannis together when PHX goes small - this is the right approach. Lopez needs to be on the court as many minutes as possible. He was key to their defense last night. Giannis wasn't moving too well laterally for parts of the game. If they play Giannis at the 5 too much Phoenix will happily take those Ayton minutes and win.

Giannis and Middleton at the 1 and 2 is a terrible idea. Phoenix wings are just going to end the game.

Giannis and Middleton at the 1 and 2 could switch on the 2-5 and 1-5 pick and roll. They can match up with Ayton when he rolls and switch. Size.

Drue or PJ being on CP and switches on Ayton is not going to win down in the paint. That's too easy. Having a bigger size on Ayton with Giannis and Middleton can help, I'll take my chances with that matchup.
