Damian Lillard says the Spurs screens hurt because they actually set real screens

[JohnMax]

"Their screens hurt. They actually set real screens. They do a great job of setting and holding screens. It wears you down. Chasing Tony Parker is one thing. Getting hit every single time is another thing. It takes a toll on you."

"It makes you tired," Lillard continued. "When you're tired from chasing him (Parker) around down there, it's tough to come down on the offensive end and get much done when you're wore down. It's hard. I've got to do a better job at avoiding screens. That's a challenge that we're all going to have to accept."

And those are big bodies setting those screens. Duncan is 7'0" 250, Splitter is 7'0" 230, Bonner is 6'10" 240, Ayers is 6'9" 240. Those are some big dudes. Almost like running into a brick wall.

The LeBron effect

:applause: :applause: :applause:

Kobe inspired a generation of me-first chuckers like Westbrook, LeBron is inspiring a generation of fish out of water.

[Straight_Ballin]

And Jordan inspired the world to wear long shorts so that today, you don't show up to the court wearing tiny little fagkit short shorts.

The end

Every time I :lol

never been knocked out by a legit screen ever. you just need to analyze and acknowledge who has the power.

if a guy sets a legit screen on you, you basically have two options:
1.) run straight through his ass if he weighs less than you, or
2.) GO AROUND his fat ass if he weighs more than you.

damian lillard should be considering option 2 almost every time in the nba.

I believe it. The moving screens are them riding you, while a legit screen means you are running into a stationary object.

This series will be a great learning process for Lillard, LMA, POR. He does know that POR can set screens for him and do the same to TP. Welcome to the playoffs.

Easy with him though, dude was most likely sent to us from RealGayMen. I hear he got himself an account there hoping for some cawk after giving up on writing his phone number on public toilet doors, which he had been doing for years.

After 5k+ posts he realised it was in fact a basketball forum.

Sorry man but Jabbar cracked me up, just couldn't resist :oldlol: and Im Still Ballin needed a fatherly advice to shut up already about that time machine shit. :lol

Damn you guys for ruining a good Spurs thread.
Nah let's get back to basketball :lol

On topic, to me the key isn't the size of their bigs but the fact that everybody is disciplined and is willing to put his body on the line.

Diaw, Ginobili, Leonard, Green and even Parker himself consistently set damn good screens. Another proof of Pop's greatness as a coach :bowdown:

Disappointed at Lillard though, he sounded like such a pvssy the way he said this.

[davehos]

People always talk about the Spurs "offense" and how they "use the clock" ... they use that clock to wear people down. Notice how Parker will just stand in the corner sometimes while Ginobili runs a play? Parker gets his rest when they have a non-scoring threat guarding Parker. They're running someone like Lillard down in the paint on pick after pick. You need a complete game to beat the Spurs. Just how it is.

Edit: I should probably say you also need a bench to beat the Spurs. They just wear people down.
