I don't think the Cleveland series is a good predicter of how GS will choose to defend Houston. Golden State hid Curry so aggressively because Cleveland was screening with LeBron and Curry has no chance in that mismatch when he gets switched onto him. So they incorporated "passing" Curry's man off to avoid that mismatch. That's a completely different scenario than what Houston provides.
A very well thought out response. I don't 100% agree but wouldn't be surprised if you were right.

Nah.
Cc is a nice team.
Howsomever,
Winning 4 games in conf play one season does not confer all time status.

GS is actually WAY better on D without Curry.

"The mark of a regular season team is one that loses to lower seeded teams/teams who have won fewer games in the playoffs. That simply has not been the case for CC. They just don’t underperfourm their seeding. Like ever."
Just wondering...Who is seeded higher GSW or the Rockets?

Maybe a tad over stated but with Curry out they are usually bigger and just switch more things. Makes playing D easier.

Safe to say we make an exception for the GOAT squad who slept walk though the reg season. Use your noodle.

klay is also lackluster in creating his own shot.
Remember Game 6 in the 2016 Western Conference Finals?
Klay definitely created his own shot in that one.

So you're saying you could give klay Thompson the ball at the top of the key, clear out the lane and he'd be effective off the dribble one on one without any ball screens?

Lol no competent coach is trying to get an ISO at the top. Too easy to help on that. ISO's are usually at HP or on a wing area.

That's exactly what an iso is. Thompson is rarely in those situations because he's not a shot creator off the dribble.
Watch how Durant gets his buckets, they get him the ball and clear out.
Harden the same
Paul the same
LeBron the same
An iso is great for the best players in the league. Thompson is not an iso player, he feeds off curry, Durant and picks.

They aren't going to iso Klay when there are 2 other guys better than him at it on the team.
Doesn't mean he can't do it.

No, I'm saying whether he had a hand in his face or not, he was draining threes and long twos.

I know, Okie.
I was pulling hard for OKC in that series as well. After the loss, I kicked my plastic trash can into a wall and it left a huge hole.

I'm pretty sure only Durant is scoring well off iso plays right now with curry hobbled some.

He's just not a shot creator, he's probably the best catch and shoot player in the NBA today.
There's a reason he was able to score 60 points in 29 minutes on about 10 dribbles. Klay moves takes a pass and shoots. He's not a good ball handler, he does what he needs with his handles.

Team ball will beat Iso-ball...especially when the team guys are talented enough to play iso. I like the Rockets this year (in Hou), however, they have the great misfortune of having a great team while this GS team is still in its prime. If GS breaks up over salaries this off-season, the Rockets will finally have their chance.

I guess as a coach I don’t consider that an iso. In an ISO I’m trying to get my guy 1v1 in a situation where help is hard to get there. 1-4 low I’m trying to force help and makes play off of it. I guess you could call 1-4 ISO but I don’t personally see it that way.
