So they're going with an out-Warriors the Warriors plan. Interesting.

Only thing wrong with him is he's a streaky-arse, spoiled-arse t-sip (longhorns always have to do a little extra to earn their spurs in my eyes ). We'll see how the year finishes out but if he's not humble enough to accept the fact that this is Kawhi's team first and foremost, he can hit the bricks.

I think he'll be fine but we'll see.

To he fair, Denver outwarriored the warriors. Houston could do it too. They have a death lineup that can go toe to toe offensively with gs.

A lineup of lou, harden, Gordon, Ariza, and ryno can drain a lot of 3s.

I'm interested to see how this road trip goes for GS.

Ends in SA. Wonder if the Spurs can make up some ground.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that trying to outshoot the warriors probably isn't the best strategy...


The teams that have beaten GS this season have almost universally outshot them from behind the arc. Now, the Warriors are also great at defending the three so it is easier said than done.

Sure. In individual games. But making that your strategy for a 7 game series? I'm not so sure

It's their only option, really. It's not without precedent (our mid-00's teams routinely out-Sunned the SSoL Suns when the occasion called for it), just a little different against this supercharged warrior squad.

Still think the better bet if anyone has a shot at beating them is forcing them to change their game (as opposed to trying to beat them at it), but that requires the personnel to do so, of course. Few teams are even equipped to challenge them in that regard.

No one is beating the GSW by out shooting them from 3.

You have to have guards and wings that can penetrate and bigs (that can run) to clean up the boards.

That is why Cleveland gave them fits two years ago and beat them last year. They have shite for front court players. Beat them in the paint.
