Even then they are probably still counting by two's and us three's during that time.

Was the pun intended😉?

Would Poole be developed like he is today if we still had KD?

If we start the burmuda triangle......how does that affect us defensively? We've seen it with the Joker, when he has to use too much energy on the defensive end, his offense suffers. With our more defensive line up, it leads to easy buckets. So I lean more to a defensive line up than getting carried away by all the offense. Let the ships get lost in the burmuda triangle at the later part of the game, when there is no turning back.

Honestly I think a big takeaway of this game is if you make Jokic run all game by pushing the pace he’s gonna struggle

I said it on the series breakdown on youtube the best defense we can play on Jokic is to put him in all sorts of screen actions and then let him cook on offense. If there shooters get hot they can put up points and it’s the same strategy as with Luka just let them get theirs and let their bodies betray them

GP2 is a little lost on D sometimes, Draymond, Andre, and especially Kerr yell at him all of the time. He is awesome on 1on1 D and has so many good traits helping on D with his hops, strength and length but he definitely gets lost more than most. About who starts between Poole and Steph and the stats around that, we have to remember that whoever plays with Draymond and the shooters will get better spacing and the benefit of Draymonds screens which may be the best in the league and his passing which is relentless. On the second unit Poole gets doubled and has to create much more on his own so of course his stats will reflect this. With Pooles first step if he can hit close to 40% on 3's in these playoffs he is going to cost us a fortune but he will be worth it. We are fortunate to have pulled Denver, look at what the Celtics r dealing with in the Nets right now.

Great point!

All those Beli minutes finally showing results.

Maybe Poole but targeting Steph is pointless, he's too good of a defender at this point and he's been targeted by Lebron and Harden relentlessly and handled that in the past

Bermuda Triangle

That definitely should be the name of that line up.

Great breakdown as always Alch. I think Steph coming off the bench is also to set an example to the other guys (Wiggins/Poole) that they could come off the bench when needed. Something like setting an example to the team
