How do the Dubs defend the 1-2 Pick and Pop? I know they pride themselves on being able to switch everything, but is Curry included in those switches? I imagine they definitely switch when the shot clock is under 10s (a play we run a lot), but if they're switching guard-guard pick and pops it might be smart to start every halfcourt possession with Jet setting one for Beard, then spotting up. Putting Steph on an island is the goal (and hopefully eventually getting him in foul trouble), but even if they don't switch, making him hedge and recover on defense a bunch could take a lot out of him, at the very least.
Are they going to double Harden like the other teams? Having Smith in there is going to be huge. I hope our front line will have a whale of series for us to have a chance. They should.
They'll probably switch on 1-4 pick and rolls as well. Can Green defend Harden 1v1? I'd like to see that along with an additional screen with Howard once they switch.
I wonder if they are gonna call illegal defense on Bogut this series , he didn't guard anyone in the last three games of the Memphis series , just camped out in the paint. That really caused Memphis a lot of trouble.
well i think the combination of Smith,Dwight and Jones trumps their bigs, Smoove is the key to this series. He just is.
