Just like Harden and LeBron, no one can stop KD one on one. Anyway, still need to beat the Jazz one more time. How reckless of you, @DreamShook
Ariza, Moute, Gordon. Capela should not be pulled out that far unless we switch, which we will anyway
This makes no sense. KD can just hang out and shoot 3, drawing Clint away from the lane, letting Iggy and Raymond drive and pass to Klay and Stephanie to shoot wide open 3. This makes no SENSE in my loud SAS voice. They take a page out of Kerr and don't guard Iggy and Green. Whenever the Warriors lose, they change game plan and stop guarding the worse shooters. When they were losing against the Grizz, they decided to not guard Tony Allen. This series, they decided to not guard Rondo. Let Clint dominate the lane. Put him on Iggy or Raymond by not guarding them. Dare them to shoot the 3's. If they make the 3's , you can live with it. If you let Klay, KD, and , Stephanie shoot open 3's like Pelicans were doing..then you go WTF WTF WTF
Exactly. If you let Clint get pulled away from the lane, then you just fell into the Warriors trap. That's why that death lineup works. DUMBASS coaches fall into the trap by guarding Raymond and Iggy, opening up lane and shooting for their 3 offensive players. Stay in the lane and don't let them get easy shoots and the only way that work is by having Clint hang out and crush anyone that dares walk into the lane. Rudy and Mtichell knows better now
Damn straight!!! Let them go to the holes and let Clint wait for them and BLOCK every shot! Rockets in 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup. Yesterday was the first time the Warriors won when KD scores more than 35 points. They don't win when KD scores 35 plus because that means everyone is standing around and watching KD. Let KD score his 40 points. That means a Rocket sweep
Yeah Clint Capela might be ineffective Blocking Shots or Rebounding away from the lane, with more time I thought about it and reading some useful posts. Clint on Draymond is more Likely, Maybe Clint makes Draymond ineffective with his passing, with Clint long arms disrupting their back cut layups to Klay or Steph. Picks for Klay, Draymond passes to Klay for 3 point shot.
Pelicans actually employed that really well yesterday. They were just unable to take advantage when the Warriors got stagnant. There were so many chances for transition buckets. The Pelicans team looks like a weaker Clippers team with CP3 and Blake. Force feeding AD with Draymond was a bad strategy. Jrue started attacking Curry in the second half and that is something they should have been doing all game.
Clint Capela defensively looks a lot like Hakeem, 2 rebounds in one play, 2nd chance rebounds, looking like a volleyball player tipped rebound to himself left handed blocks, his timing on blocks is so good now, especially left handed blocks. Dribbling skills too. Clint and Hakeem love soccer, their footwork and speed in the paint is too good, fun to watch.
Luc is still not 100%, if Warriors and Rockets wrap up in 5 and in the East in 4/5, do the conference finals begin in the weekend??
Clint Capela showing up Rudy Gobert who is the Real Defensive Player of the Year. Like Hakeem showing up David Robinson MVP
Yep, this D was implemented specifically to counter GSW. Pundits will be raging and pissing themselves senseless when Rockets dominate Worriers.
