Dubbies had more trouble with a worse team

[tmtcsc]

To beat GS, I believe teams have to:

1. Limit turnovers / protect the ball
2. Out-rebound them (to limit GS shot attempts) and slow down the pace of the game.
3. Play disciplined basketball & maximize opportunities (This is a GS weakness. They will give you the ball back because they like to showboat / play loose with their passes.) This means making good passes and limiting alley-oop attempts to "sure-things".
4. Play a half-court game (as opposed to trying to score too fast in transition).

The last Spurs / Warriors game was strange. They gave the DUBS so many easy layups it was disgusting. I'd rather GS take lower percentage 3 point attempts with defenders in the vicinity.

So much this. The only teams to beat GS twice this year are SA and Memphis. You can get lucky for a game by outscoring them, maybe. But no one is going to be the Warriors better than the Warriors

I don't see how you beat them without outscoring them tbh

Force them to forfeit by framing them for PEDs?

Blazers were in the game only because of not one but two players having unusually hot hands. Won't happen again. Sweep

No one will beat the Warriors playing the Dubs tempo & style.

Agreed. If they beat us with making contested 3s, then fine. Whatever
