Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
The Spurs continue to over-react to limited offensive players like Harrison Barnes and Bogut, continuously leaving open fucking 3-point shooters..
- Leonard stupidly reacts to Bogut 15 feet from the basket, Thompson makes an open 3
- Spurs close out hard on scrubby Draymond Green, Thompson open jump shot
- Spurs double Harrison Barnes in the post, passes to Bogut for an open layup
- Spurs over play another Green drive, open 3 for Thompson
- Spurs over play Barnes inside, Bogut gets the loose ball and scores an open layup
- Spurs over play Barnes inside, kicks it out and ball gets to Thompson for an open 3 on the baseline
Klay Thompson has 11 field goals at the half, only 2 or maybe 3 were off the dribble..smh, tbh..
The Spurs should be encouraging Barnes, Bogut, Green and anybody other than Curry and Thompson to shoot as much as possible..horrible strategy from Pop..

Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Draymond Green has 4 fucking assists at the half, smh..
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Its driving me fucking nuts man. They're not picking him up quickly enough in transition and they're trying to shut down shit thats not killing them and giving open 3s.
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Surreal and disgraceful performance by the Spurs. Poor fans who paid money to watch that BS.
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
I'd take my chances with a contested Barnes/Green floater than wide open shots for Klay/Curry tbh.

Exactly..
I'd take an open floater from Barnes or Green or Bogut over a contested 3 from Curry and Thompson, tbh:lol..

Pop shit the bed with this horrible defensive gameplan. It doesn't help that Ginobili and Green have been giving Thompson numerous clean looks from 3-point range. Spurs need to wake the fuck up and Pop needs to re-insert Splitter into the starting line-up.

Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
All GREAT fucking points. I can live with Green, Bogut, and Barnes shooting jump shots or drives in the paint. Over helping on these scrubby assholes is what is getting Curry and Thompson all their open looks. It's frustrating as hell...
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Everytime a scrub post ups the Spurs double, I don't get it.
Stay with the shooters and try something different. I would go small and switch on everything, tbh. Provoke them into playing one on one.
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
its really all on pop tbh its his game plan

You are completely on point. Everyone can see it. The question is, why isn't popovich addressing this.

Because Pop is scared tbh
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
It's pretty clear .... after 1 and 1/2 games that the Spurs can't match up with thIs team...and they know it. And to think lee isn't even playing. Pop needs to wakeup, small ball isn't working! (Go figure)..
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
I don't think pop is scared....stubborn is the word....keep playing the same record, expecting a different tune..again.

This is a guy that was outcoached by Avery fucking Johnson with a prime Duncan putting up insane numbers that series. He's always been overrated and prone to panicking in playoff games

I guess Pop thinks the same, at least on the small ball part.

Can't get stops with Gary Neal, though..

But this is definitely the way to go, imho.

Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
They continue to double everybody is posting, driving me nuts too.
need to cut that lead under 10 before the fourth.
btw we should launch a game blog here, the official one is unreadable tbh

Harrison Barnes makes shots, that's fine..let him shoot 20 shots a game, it's better than Curry and Thompson getting not from range..
I'd rather die, knowing that I lost to Harrison Barnes getting hot and beating me, rather than giving Klay Thompson open shots all game..

Yeah, I wish they would stop doing that.

If you let him open he will score efficiently.
thing is also we have to play them more physical.
7 pts game. Nice run
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Curry is IMO about to try to take over
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Shitty to think that the Spurs would be right there if they didn't let Thompson shoot wide open 3s for the entire 1st half:lol..
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Not capable to box out Landry really? Smh

Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..

Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Dear god Thompson again open !
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Rebounding and the lack of defensive attention to the 3 point shooters has been the problem all game long.
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
ok, Pop has got the small ball/switching part down, now if he could just tell his guys to stay on the goddamn shooters we are going to be OK.
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
It may be late for this game but we should be good for the series if we stick with this and shoot at our normal rate.
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
:lol they just doubled the post again and the Warrors scored an easy layup..
Fuck Pop, tbh..
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
So many missed opportunities on D and O ! The fuck.
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Warriors are shooting 26% from the field in the 2nd half..
The 1st half strategy killed the Spurs, they would be winning this game if Pop didn't call for doubles and aggression against Warriors role players, smh..

The Spurs need to hit a few more threes, but I am appalled at the lack of defense. Even Stephen Curry's two missed threes in the third were wide open. The three-point shot is successful 36 percent of the time. This includes all shots at the end of the shot-clock and the quarters. I am sure that the wide open looks that the Warriors keep getting are converted at a much higher rate.
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
Collapsing on Jarrett Jack :lol
-
Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
They're collapsing against everybody..if it isn't Curry, don't overreact, tbh..

They have been doubling in the second half too, tbh. The difference, imho, has been the speed and quickness provided by playing a smaller line-up.

Re: Why the fuck do they keep over playing the Warriors role players?..
We badly need super Manu right now on O but also on D

Manu with the 3 wtf plays in a row.

Sometimes Pop outcoaches himself, tbh..
He decided to finally make guys like Jack and Barnes beat you the past few games, rather than Curry and Thompskn, and their offense has suffered..
Barnes is shooting 44% in the series..Jack is playing at a high level, but these guys don't take efficient shots..they are taking mid-range 2s all game, the most inefficient shot in basketball..
