to be fair, while there's definitely illegal screens set by the warriors, the defense typically also grabs and hold onto curry. that's basketball though all teams throughout the years push the limits to what the refs allow and not allow to win.
Are the Rockets the only other franchise in the league now? NO team has a coach as brave and noble as JVG?
Of course teams try to be a little sneaky and get away with some stuff here and there. But what the Warriors do is particularly egregious. When the Heat and Spurs were winning titles, were this many people complaining about moving screens? Nope. You know the Warriors are getting away with blatant moving screens when the average fan who doesn't pay attention to such a things away from the ball even notices and says "hey, isn't that against the rules? Isn't that a moving screen?"
Also, why don't they just run through Bogut and have him pay for his moving screens. Like the time hate to say it when Fisher laid out Scola for setting a screen on him. Rockets need to play through the moving screens by playing tougher, the refs are calling it you need to play above the BS. Stop complaining and come up with plans to attack the moving screens.
One half! And a lot of that half was the Warriors running on fast breaks because the Rockets were missing shots, so there wasn't an opportunity to set illegal screens in a half-court offense.
They do it to every team. You make it sound like this is only the Rockets. JVG's find was only about the Rockets, because it was only about Yao And to be fair to JBB. JVGs fine is half of JBB's pre-tax salary. Would you risk >60% of you salary to fight the fight that no other team has succeeded at, and not even move the needle on our chances of winning
Offense created by illegal screens is like 70% of what the Dubs do, they sometimes set 2 or 3 illegal screens in a single possession. They've gotten away with it for more than a year, I just don't see that changing now. The league WANTS the Warriors to win, and if they were called for even half the illegal screens they commit, they'd struggle.
I don't care about the rest of the fricken league, I want my team to fight to stand up - you know Cuban would.... DD
And Curry has such a quick release, even these little holds and bumps that Dwight would get called for create just enough space for Curry to shoot and open shot.
It's an absolutely lethal combination, and credit to Curry for being able to shoot that well but it's still BS that one team gets to blatantly commit fouls on just about every possession.
The problem is when the officials call illegal screens on the other end of the floor against the Rockets that are much less obvious. You have to call it the same on both ends of the floor.
The Harlem Globetrotters can hit that 4 pointer on command, but there's a reason why none of them is in the NBA. The NBA has made a globe trotter its premiere player, they have gone as far as to recruit the refs for the Globe trotter games. Now the league watches in awe as the warriors thrash the washington generals night after night.
