West stopper=Jaque Vaughn
Force him to get the ball on the floor and then throw the double team at him. We could force some tournovers or at least get the ball out of his hands.
i 'd like to see him get double teamed as well.
We would hit a new low if we start doing that
LJ and I were discussing this on the way home.
I think the best solution might be to just let West get his. He scores 30 when the Spurs try to guard him anyway. So maybe they should let him go?
Maybe they should just double hard on Paul instead to take away easy passes to West.
West is this year's Dirk for the Spurs. Spurs just don't have anyone that matches up well with him. So maybe they should cut off the head of the snake and smother CP3 instead.
but if you double Paul, won't that open up his passing? and the potential alley oop lobs?
I thought we rattled Paul when we dared him to shoot his midrange jumpshot
You need to put Luis Scola on him. Scola 14pts, 9.3rebs a game in the playoffs.![]()
I agree with that. They should just pressure the out of CP3 with double teams the whole length of the court. Get him rattled so it is difficult for him to make a clean pass to a teammate for an assist. Dallas used this strategy the last game of the season against them and it worked beautifully. Despite how well this NO team is playing, big-time pressure is their achilles heel.
Trust me i have seen alot of hornets games and if you double paul he will kill you because he splits them to easy and west is always left open and you dont want that to happen.
Why? If you get him out of rhythm, he can't hit those outside shots all night, heating the fans up.
West is the reason we can't get stops. He's the reason we never got on a run in the second half. West and CP are a big two-type of tandem. I wouldn't mind him seeing the occasional double team experiment.
I don't know if he can find the open man .. it depends who is doubling and how hard they are doing it . They gotta get him out of his rhythm.
What's your solution to West? To me, West will get 30 with someone guarding him and probably 35 with no one guarding him![]()
Didnt Dallas try trapping CP and only succeeded with it one game?
let him try to beat us himself and we shut down and plz frustrate cp3
If they pressure CP3 early, I'm down with that, maybe a few traps on the pick and roll; or at the tope of the key, but I don't think it's a good idea to double him when he's aggressive and attack mode. He's going to make us pay with his passing.
Bowen already did a good job defensively, Paul was 5 of 14 shooting , and only got two garbage points when the Starters were out. I think we need Pop to use Udoka out there with Bowen on Paul.
We need Manu and Tim, and guys to read and defend the entry pass to West (and Chandler) better.
and 40 with Finley.
Well Dallas defense kind of sucks compared to the Spurs.![]()
I Pray that Popovich decides to double Dwest lol...this will really be a sweep if that happens. Doubling him only leaves Peja, Pargo and Mopete open. The Mavs tried to double him and got SLAUGHTERED lol they were clueless.
the spurs can't stop West. that's a fact. but they cannot let scrubs like stojacovic and wells score like that and expect to compete.
Guess we gotta keep it man to man. For some reason i'm not worried about Peja and them.
i put bonner on him, fukn hard flagrant is all you need, and make sure bowen is there too with his foot![]()
Pop should use the Hack-a-West, he will get his points anyway, but it might disrupt Paul game if he does not have a chance to touch the ball![]()
![]()
Hack-a-whoever...Pop's new crutch. although i really like that it might take away Chris Paul's touches.
Is there anyone to put David West into foul trouble? I say we get him and Paul into foul trouble
thats the dumbest I've heard on here man...DWEST is like an 84% ft shooter...![]()
Take and make the wide open shots. 1st half... Good. 2nd half... Bad.
