I've always assumed from the start of the season that the PF would be platooned by 4 players. Still would like to swap out Melo for Anderson + filler and I'm sure we'll shoot for Paul George as well.
If both teams are fully healthy then worst case scenario is losing in 6. Id say we take em to 6 or 7. Might even win. We’ll see. 48 minutes of harden/cp3 fully healthy with our defense playing better with moute is no joke breh
We need a GOON . . . . Pachula is a crap ass goon and we need someone to put him on his ass routinely Rocket River
Watch us nab Tyson Chandler or Serge next month. That would give us the front court boost in athleticism we need to compete with them. I'm done with "spacing the floor," let's bang at the rim.
Last quarter is the quarter that counts. The other three is just working out who will be in foul trouble and who won't. They steamrolled us in the 4th quarter very easily in our own building. That's just the way it was. But with that being said we did win the first matchup so. . . . Harden is not more valuable than Durant. It doesn't matter who plays on what team. The Warriors can just start using Durant more if they want. It's either Durant with the ball in his hands in the last minute of the game or it isn't. The individual talent absolutely matters. I get your point but that just goes to show how far ahead the Warriors were last year. If they are tested Durant will get the ball more. Don't you worry about that. Durant, Curry, Thompson, Green . . . it's almost unfathomable how anyone would beat that. Thompson and Green would yield to Durant when the going gets tough . . . if it ever gets tough. Green and his ability to post up and then draw in defenses is really what we are lacking. We have no inside game at all. It would help our shooters immensely. I have no idea why we don't pursue this. It's the obvious answer in my mind. Moute lacks this and so do our centers and Anderson. Actually Capela does somewhat have an inside game. We do like a play or two a game where Capela will just back down a defender or just iso on the block and score . . . but the defenses do not adjust anything to this. They just let him have his 2 baskets and that's that. But Green's ability to handle the ball and drive from far out as well as be big enough to play on the low post is really what I feel their secret is. This helps Curry and Thompson immensely. I'd like to see someone play a game where I'm not saying why is Curry and Thompson just standing there open and all alone. I want to see us not adjust and help out for Green. Just let Green go. Always keep a body on Curry and Thompson. This will also work. Green is not that good by himself.
yet Kyrie and Lebron hurt them alot The reality is the focus is on DEFENSE If you can keep them human 110~120 They are definitely beatable When CP3 and Harden . . .like LeBron and Kyrie . . .can BEAT THERE MAN Doesn't matter which man is on them . .. I think they can get around Green ,Klay , or Durant The biggest issues are: 1. WHEN THE SHOT IS OPEN SHOOT THE D*MN THING!!! 2. MAKe 4.5 out of 10 times!! Rockets hit their OPEN 3 points .. they can definitely take down the Warriors Rocket River
