[official.nba.com] Illegal screens are supposed to be a point of emphasis this year

Warriors are full of cheap tricks. Genius move by Kerr and staff to teach them these things for two reasons:

1) refs won't call them all (or in GSW's case, won't call them at all)
2) "OMG did you see that shot from curry, the inventor of the 3 pointer??" Meanwhile, nobody cares how he got open, they're just watching the shot

 

And for all the haters who may call me out -- I know that harden has some cheap tricks too. But james doesn't ALWAYS get away with it. Some games he can't buy a whistle.

 

They were a point of emphasis for the Warriors.

hey-oh!

 

point of emphasis at the beginning of the year for the nba has been a gimmick for years.

 

Ha! Too funny

 

Didnt you notice all the moving screens and holding they called on Bogut and Green all playoffs?

 

I don't know what a moving screen is anymore. I see the guy still moving, and setting a screen. But that's not a moving screen. It's a screen while moving, yes - but not a moving screen.

 

They point they wanted to emphasize is that the Warriors get away with illegal screens while no one else does. They did a VERY good job.

 

I've seen guys make a move to the basket . .. .and the offensive player's teammate literally clear a path for him . .. . . .

GS won fair and square.

They mastered the ancient woodoo to injure opponent PGs. Some are tougher and able to come back but lack performance (Mike Conley), some can't come back (Kyrie Irving), some don't even get to play against them at all (Beverley).
