The thought of what it would take to beat GSW 4 out of 7 is seriously exhausting
Defense.
Rushing out to guard 3 point line and make them Mid-range shooters.
Meanwhile protecting the paint with good inside presence.
The sustained level of attention to detail that the defense has to be at is just...it's OD. In theory, one would think that the Warriors can't win w/o the three point line so if you stay home on shooters, collapse on the Klay when he's coming off Single Doubles, and run everyone off the line and when you do don't help, you should have a great shot.
Then you have to be elite on the other end of the floor as well
Issue is that it goes against everything you've practiced your entire life from a defensive standpoint and then when fatigue comes into play, it becomes really difficult.
