That's just not true. Post defense is a strength of theirs with Green and Bogut. Both excellent at protecting the paint. They may not get the blocks, but that's mostly an empty stat when you have guys that do what they do.
Odd that you'd say that given that he's just a 34% 3 point shooter and our starter DMo is a 37% 3 point shooter.
Teams can go up and over them though. Neither Bogut or Green really play above the rim so you can get a lob show going and all they could do to stop it is foul or flop and hope for a bail out call. The Rockets have a much harder time against big athletic defenders like DAJ.
This could be a big deal, especially with Houston playing confident. Lack of experience, especially since the regular season isn't the playoffs. Hopefully they show up thinking the Rockets will rollover.
I thought about starting brewer for about a minute until I realized how dumb that would be. We HAVE to have him come off the bench for us. But at the end of the day, we are bigger than them. Who comes off of their bench? Shaun Livingston? He can't shoot. Marreese Speights? He's not bad. Andre Igoudala? He's not as athletic as he used to be, but he's been shooting well this postseason.
Haven't you heard? The Warriors have no weaknesses. They are the diamonds of basketball--harder and more beautiful than all comers. Their only characteristic that could be perceived as a weakness is their abundant charity, which leads them to permit other teams to share the court and, on occasion, score.
They don't have many weaknesses. Experience? To be them you have to play perfect basketball. Maybe they haven't really been tested? I don't think NOLA nor Memphis really put that much adversity on them. Maybe they aren't very physical and that is something we are. It bothered Dallas maybe it can bother GS
Only watched a couple Warriors games, but to me they're the prototypical 'run and gun' team. They win by trying to outscore you, that's it. Weaknesses (as with all run and gun teams): - they play no defense - they have no inside game - they are streaky and when they get cold they have no offense - they are all finesse Really don't get the hype. Rockets should take this series easily.
Attack, attack and attack some more. Get klay in early foul trouble. Attack the rim like theres no tomorrow.
They are a top defensive team too. You just watched a couple of games. I say they do not have much experience for a NBA title, they also have lots of pressure to win it.
Hmm appreciate the enthusiasm/optimism, but you should leave the analysis to people who have actually watched them play. They play excellent defense. The only starter whose D can be questioned is Curry, but even he's not a disaster out there on D. Maybe there is a soft spot in their defense (maybe it's the lob pass?), but nobody has been able to find that soft spot yet.
Guys, it was a joke about Morey loving his "undersized" 6'8" PFs It's not funny when you have to explain it
A play that worked wonders was Harden driving in the paint and Dwight was on the right and Smith on the left, Harden has options to throw a lob to either for a dunk or give it to Smith who lobbed it to Dwight. we must abuse this play to it's full extent, i don't think the Warriors can stop it
