Golden State Warriors and Moving Screens

somebody needs to do it at a press conference in the PLAYOFFS, where all the cameras will be on them and risk a fine that jvg got... thats the only way people watching will take notice

 

Nba dish, where we talk about the nba. The Warriors are the best team in the league. They will be talked about plenty around here (around everywhere).

 

Thanks for letting me know that ice is also water. I dont know where the impression of marc jackson was the orchestrater of those moving screens and their winning ways was in my post but Im fully aware of kerrs methods.

 

Those picks are sickening but you know california has to have a relevant Nba team to pay the bills.

 

A compilation video of all GSW's egregious illegal screens has to go viral for the league to take notice, similar to Harden's defensive juggernaut videos. Someone get to work.

 

Yes please. If I had any video editing skills I would love to make a video of it. Somebody really needs to make this video and put them on blast.

 

THE NBA WILL TAKE THE VIDEO DOWN WITHIN 2 DAYS OF THOSE MOVING SCREENS

BUT HARDENS DEFENSE CAN BE ON THERE FOR YEARS, BECAUSE THE LEAGUE DONT CARE FOR HARDEN.. IF THEY DID HE WOULD HAVE WON MVP LAST YEAR

 

I think it's possible for a video like this to go viral (eventually). I get the feeling that if Warriors keep up their dominance they will earn themselves a lot of haters as people pile on the hate/jealousy bandwagon, whatever you want to call it. People love to see champs fall.

Maybe it even goes viral before the playoffs? (Especially if that sports network who shall not be named continues with their knob-slobbering coverage).

 

Dwight tried against Green and it was the most subtle grab of a arm...whistles blew.

The Warriors are the only team that gets away with this and it's constant nearly every time down the court.

 

I've been complaining about this since last season. People look at me like I'm just a hater because they don't understand what a moving screen really is and since they do it all the time it must be legal.

Until the common fan learns what a moving screen is, they won't accept that the Warriors are doing anything wrong.

 

Why does everyone think sports these days aren't rigged? The government is rigged, i.e. you vote for someone to benefit you and they do the opposite You think the NBA is gonna change the rules because we complain about it? Untill there are more Rockets fans than Warriors fans... don't get your panties in a bunch. The only "fair" games are gentlemen's games. Period.

 

Someone please do this and make it go viral. It needs to be done, it's unjust the amount of crap the stupid warriors get away with. Guess how many wins they would have if those were call offensive fouls?? It's part of their game plan. To those people who say "oh stop being jealous, the warriors and curry are just great", this is why, they have an advantage in that the league has accepted their moving screens as a style of their offense but will call a offensive foul on the other team for doing the same.

 

Make a video and claim to be a Clippers fan.

let those two teams and fanbases fight it out

While we the instigators watch the action unfold.

Do it

 

The thing is that this isn't anything new. The dubs were pretty blatant about it last season and the refs apparently decided not to address it, despite the fact that it gives them a competitive advantage. Can you imagine if Dwight was to try and pull that crap? Like another poster said, he'd foul out in the 1st quarter.

I think the only way its going to change is if there's a loud enough outcry where the NBA is forced to deal with it, although I think the chances of that happening are slim to none.

 

It's the same as the Utah Jazz 'home court advantage' in the 90s and D-Will era, the Pistons bad boys getting away with murder, the Ewing Knicks grabbing, shoving and pushing not being called etc. Team's identity, the discourse or story the league is running with and the portrayal of it. The NBA is all about narratives and if a team is seen as champions, they are treated as such. If teams are seen as hard working instead of thugs, they will more stuff go. It's not a conspiracy or anything, it's true.

 

Peoples obsession with the Warriors in here is scary, like stalker ex girlfriend scary.

 

This.

This is no different from something like Blake Griffin's using his off arm to push off the defender when he dunks. That's his style and he's an exciting dunker. Shaq used to be able to bulldoze his way to the basket and if the defender fell, it's defensive foul. That's his style and he was the Most Dominant Player Ever. Even Jordan pushed off with his off hand when he drove by the defender.

If the Rockets played the same style with lots of screens and off ball movement, they would be getting away with those too. If you watch Adelman's offense, the handoff play frequently had the big guy moving his foot or hip after the handoff to impede the defender chasing after the guard. They never called it. (The only exception was Yao Ming. Thanks, Cuban.)

 

Which team doesn't do that? That's nothing, compare to what Jordan & Griffin were doing.

You think Harden doesn't get away with his pushing off, or jumping into people?

 

Don't bother.

One thing I've learned over all the years I've been on CF, is that Rockets fans are very non-objective. A lot of blindness on here. *Way more than other fanbases*

It's like no Rockets fan realizes that other fans across the entire country complain about Harden's foul calls and number of free throws.
