He's right, the offense was the problem with the Rockets last game. They have to figure that out. As for smacking around, they don't really have the personnel unless he means Beverly hurting somebody.
"Smack 'em?"
So, Pringles just gave the refs a heads up that they're gonna commit a bunch of flagrant fouls?

This is rich coming from the softest, finesse minded couch out there.
You don't make a comment like that to inform the other team about your game plan. That comment was supposed to worry and intimidate the Spurs. "Okay, they gloves are off now!" Reminds me a lot of one year when D-Will and Boozer were talking tough in interviews. It's called "whistling past the graveyard".
If they're going to try that , I hope Pop will let them try it on Simmons, Dedmon, and Bertans. None of those guys are taking any off anybody.
So basically dantoni has no idea what to do. If his team can't out score you then he has to come up with a defensive strategy to stop you and he has no idea how to do that. Likely thought things would get easier with parker going down but now with Aldridge stepping up now theres another scoring threat they have to deal with. And both Kawhi and Aldridge can drop 25-40pts on them together at anytime.
Dedmon is really the only one I see that would work on because he sees too emotional. I believe that's why pop doesn't play him much in this series.
I think D'Antoni was having flashbacks to his Suns days after those last 2 loses![]()
Tim never shows emotion, but there he is grinnin like a possum eating , watching dwight stroll his agree ass off the floor. One of my favorite tim moments ever.
D'Antoni is your COTY (with Spo apparently)
He must know what hes doing... right??
You gotta be hopeful if your opponent's coach main adjustment is to bring more "swagger".
Hopefully both teams play the same strategy with the same results.
Do people think coaches just give away their adjustments. He's
making blanket statements. Plus he's somewhat right. He doesn't have to change much his team is built to destroy on offense and has to do with shot making.
A physical game favors the Spurs, who are great free throw shooters and have the bigs that can pound down low. And our star would eviscerate their star in a street fight.
LOL D'Antoni. He's like Joe Buck from Midnight Cowboy. Still thinks he has it.
I'm almost embarrassed for Rockets fan when any player drives by Harden and he pansies away from playing any defense. But this is the playoffs so FTR!
