Warriors Cavs Preview || Dat NBA LIFE ||

Comments

Just play GSW bball. It's as simple as that. What messed us up against Houston is that we tried to become something we're not. We need to play our brand of bball and do what we do best.

game 2! We will have more to talk about after seeing whats what tonight.

Athletic Alchemy

Alc we gonna do a pre game with you tonight?

You right about Steph, he got GREAT mileage this season with all that injury-rest. Now that he's got that confidence in his handle again, the stage is set for a Curry Finals MVP performance...

Ananth Srinivasan

If you look on YouTube for Tim Leglers analysis form last year's finals, he goes thru lots of video examples of just how bad the Cavs were in transition defense, specifically Love, James. JR, Korver and you can through Thompson in as well since he's always well under the basket pursuing every shot on offense. The video shows example after example when the Warriors take possession and the Cavs must transition to D they are in position to do it but then the Warriors hit the gas and simply run past them....nothing has changed in that the shooters for the Cavs can't play transition defense and the new more athletic players can't shoot. The Warriors will kill the Cavs with their own version of Showtime.

Steven Stanley

Gotta finish at Oracle!

Nathan Glanzer

makes sense...I think they will be hard pressed to match the physicality Houston brought. The Dubs should feel relatively comfortable.

Athletic Alchemy

Thanks man! BTW I was getting ready to send a APB out you for the end of that Rockets series!

Athletic Alchemy

I hear you...He has been playing GM since he left for Miami. But I don't hold much stock in draft position. Otherwise the Magic & Suns should have plenty of help.

Athletic Alchemy

I don't think he has to better than KD, but we need him to be aggressive.

Athletic Alchemy

Offense must run through Steph and steph gotta be better than KD to win, we need "I want a finals MVP" mode steph or "this is my fucking house" steph to push through 40+ pt Bron

solid preview. your cohost has great commentary and insight as well. would love to see more of him on the channel.

Warriors in 5 (and they drop one, just because)

The Cavs are gonna try something. Like a zone defense or some shit. Something crazy. Not saying it's going to work, but this feels me to-at least on paper-the grand mismatch everyone else sees. Which means the Cavs know that too. So I expect them to put Curry and every pick and roll, yes, but since they'll need something so much more, I'm simply expecting them to try something so much more.

Damn Uncle Alc, I was feeling a little nostalgic and went and checked out some older vids from you, and you really have stepped up, growing & evolving the whole time. In my mind you've always been the same just cause I watch all your stuff all the time (like how you don't notice how much taller your kid is getting cause you see them every day), but when you jump back a year and a half you can hear and see the growth. (Don't ever delete that old shit tho, gotta keep it it's like a scientific document). I just wanted to remark on how fucking good you have gotten and good you already were back then. Can't wait to see the future.

Updated “LeBron doesnt have any help” 2018. Draft picks by team. Never forget the Lebron narrative is manufactured Cavs: LeBron James #1 Tristan Thompson #4 Kevin Love #5 Jeff Green #5 JR Smith #18 Rodney Hood #23 George Hill #26 Larry Nance Jr #27 Kendrick Perkins #27 Cedi Osman #31 Jordan Clarkson #46 Kyle Korver #51 Jose Calderon - undrafted (Spain) Warriors: Kevin Durant #2 Sean Livingston #4 Steph Curry #7 Andre Iguodala #9 Klay Thompson #11 Nick Young #16 David West #18 Javale McGee #18 Keveon Looney #30 Draymond Green #35 Patrick McCaw #38 Zaza Pachulia #42 Quinn Cook - undrafted

Jim

Hey, don't pick on Rocco, that's his genetic bulldog shape.....

Lebron wanted TT and that guys contract is an absolute anchor around the neck of that franchise....that's on Lebron 's judgement.

Steven Stanley

Well it certainly can't be the 3 amigos

Steven Stanley

Klay is in much better shape than Rocco.....

Steven Stanley

Second

Steven Stanley

I think he will, but LeBron should.

Athletic Alchemy

You don't think Jeff Green will guard KD?

Thomas T

Yeah too me they have to go big. you put your non defending shooters out there and it will be a quick death.

Athletic Alchemy

Cavs transition defense in last year's final was dreadful and Love, Lebron, Korner, JR, Irving were main culprits. Both Korver and Love are extremely slow and with those two it's not about want to it's about can't. Cavs have to slow it and limit possessions for the Warriors and hope slowing the pace drives the Warriors to more turnovers that's the only formula sans injuries.

Steven Stanley

i'd LOVE to see whatever edit of the celtics warriors preview you had. even rough. "in another universe..."

creuset
