    Damn! You beat me to it!

    1) 2nd Qtr lineup of Sengun, Adams, Amen, Tari and Brooks.....KILLED US
    2) No PACING as usual
    3) Why not put the ball in Jalen's hands and let FVV play OFF BALL or put in Holiday in FVV's spot to open up the lanes?
    4) He has to figure out a way to open the lanes for Jalen. Similar to JaMorant...THEY HAVE TO HAVE SPACE

    Nah, he needs to learn how to get past 37 year old terrible defender Steph Curry.

    True! But I know he can do that, thats not my concern. I think the problem is FVV. Jalen is the type of player that needs the ball in his hands and space. That's when he's most effective. Fred should NEVER have more attempts than Jalen.

    The reason Jalen works best with Amen in the backcourt, is Amen is looking to create and he can get to the basket or a midrange if the play breaks down. All Fred is going to do is throw up a 3pt shot.

    If Jalen is creating it spreads the court for him and it keeps him in an aggressive mindset. Ime played into the Warriors hands
