GSW is making it hard for any team to get noticed.

After Cleveland lost Anderson, I really really liked Toronto's chance to sneak in. Two Centers that play 25 minutes or less per game, different skill sets and can both contribute offensively. They can do something

60 games into the season & they're playing .900 ball :lol:

Undefeated against the top 4 teams in both conferences, with extremely convincing wins over the the next 2 best teams in the league.

This is absurd. I really regret not getting tix when they were in Atlanta. I'll be sure to get them next year.
 
Observations after watching that OKC game

- Russ/ KD are willing passers and both can be play makers if the offense calls for it. However the Offense literally is designed to give one of them an iso beyond the three point line, run one pick and leaves them on an island. Now i'm not sure if this is all on Billy D or if the players surrounding them are just all that inept but either way it is REALLY hampering both Durant & Russ game.
- Billy D rotations are horrible, Kanter has Killed the Warriors when he's been in the game. I understand not playing him when the W's go small but when Bogut/ speights are out there, Kanter isn't as big of a liability on defense & is a opens up an entirely new dimension on offense.
- Why id Morrow getting his playing time cut because of waiters & Foye ? Both of these guys are average defenders at best & Morrow is an ELITE spot up shooter. I don't understand why you wouldn't utilize that when you have two guys who can demand a double team.. help them
- This team wasn't trying to push the ball against GSW at all, for the personnel that they have i would love to see them put more and more pressure on the defense rather then run that struggle half court game of theirs.
 
To who? Can't see the Griz,Rockets,Mavs beating them in any scenario :lol:. Maybe the Blazers but they'll probably need another series performance like the Rockets series a few years ago by Dame

OKC just has way too much trash on the roster man. GSW has absolutely no answer for Durant & it doesn't even matter :lol:

Brooks & now Donovan are far from perfect, but they have glaring holes on that roster to the point where it doesn't matter who the coach is, particularly because SAS/GSW have elite coaching.

Moved Harden for what turned into Adams, McGary, Lamb, & Martin. Only 1 of those guys is still in the rotation.
 
So how about Ty Lawson to the Pacer? :nerd:
I am not too sure what to make of it. If they Pacers staff can make Born Ready look like a star, then maybe this is a good place for Ty to be?





Couldn't find the discussion here.
 
Dion Waiters ****

While they don't have the talent of a GS/SA from top to bottom, OKC is far from a team full of scrubs outside of KD/ Russ. They just don't have too many guys outside of Kanter who can create there own offense consistently. with that said some kind of actual basketball plays have to be ran to atleast try and get these gots easy baskets. The few times they did run something outside of a screen & roll from 25+ feet out they actually got guys easy layups.

When you have two top 5 talents you have a chance to beat any team, and OKC has been able to either be ahead, or neck and neck in every game thus far. It's a few costly possesions that are costing them the game and those usually are possessions where KD/Russ have a played CALLED for them that involves them holding the ball at the three with no kind of movement for anyone else. A lot of that is on coaching. Why not run some screens for a singler and get him an open shot, a pick and pop for Ibaka, Catch & shoots for waiters etc etc... the lack of creativity makes it easy to guard OKC and that shouldn't be the case when you have two guys who can score 50 on a given night.

Russ played horrible all night last night & despite that They were up 9 with about 3 minutes left in the 3rd, then KD goes out... ISO ISO ISO at the three point line allowing GS to load up on westbrook and cause turnovers. I understand there stars but you have to put stars in a position to win.
