Honestly, the Warriors problem has been offense, not defense

[ChrisKreager]

Not defense.

If someone told you that they would allow 100, 95, and 96 points through three games in the Finals, you'd think that would be impressive.

This game didn't exactly give me flashbacks to that Houston Memorial Day offensive explosion, yet somehow the defense feels like it's worse than it is.

[J Shuttlesworth]

The Cavs are shutting down Curry and living with the other guys making shots. Also, most of Curry's made field goals haven't been easy looks at all.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Yup the defense is doing their job. the "MVP" isnt

[RoundMoundOfReb]

Given the pace 100, 95, 96 is not terrible for the Cavs. And as much people keep saying the Splash bros are gonna hit their shots eventually, can't the same be said about LeBron? He's shooting 40%...He has a hot jumper one game and he could drop 50.

Honestly, this series is interesting. I keep expecting the Warriors to take 'em out to the woodshed and it keeps not happening. I still think GS wins this...but game 4 is almost must-win.

That's what happening when your team rely so much on outside shooting and your big men can't even score inside or can't even post up and challenge a scrub like Thompson.

Bogut = No intention on posting up, always looking to pass
Green = Would rather settle for a jump shop which he's struggling now. Dude got exposed how bad his offensive skills are. Does he even had one?

No inside threat? Opponent defense would feast on your shooters just like what's happening on this series.

If Bogut or Green will not be involve on the offensive end, Cavs winning this series in game 5.

Cavs are shutting down the perimeter and warriors have nothing else. Its embarrassing

[KiiiiNG]

Cavs are shutting down the perimeter and warriors have nothing else. Its embarrassing

but bandwagon warriors fans were bragging about how they weren't just a jump shooting team and that they have the top offense and defense in the league

what happened?

those arrogant clowns (bdreason, airfederer, brandonislegend) NO WHERE to be found.

what a sad group of "fans"...

[buddha]

no shit. they've shot 40 or under percentage wise all three games.

[KembaWalker]

lmfao thought this was obvious

[TheMan]

I've said it before, the GSW are NOT an all time great team, even if they still come back and win the Finals, they are shooting like crap, even on the ton of open looks they've gotten. You kids are a funny bunch, I've seen my share of great teams and these Warriors aren't one, they're a very good team, just not an all time great

[Taller than CP3]

Their defense is going to have to do a better job since their MVP apparently decided to become a role player.

[El Gato Negro]

Kerr better come up with a better game plan than put in all your shooters and chuck threes next game. Blatt is making him look foolish with a depleted roster.

[salwan]

Tbf, draymond was great on offense up to this point (finals).

Setting screens, dribble hand-offs, passing, pick-n-poping from 3, pick-n-rolling, grabbing a rebound and going coast to coast...

However,he's not a go-to-scorer. He's more of a do - it - all, doingthe small things well and making a good team great - guy. They are not switching curry pick-n-rolls and letting dray beat them in 4-on- 3 situations.

The myth of cavs defense must stop. They are missing WIDE open shots, green and h barnes complement currys clanking display perfectly

It's not a myth, the Cavs are extremely physical. Warriors used to playing a bunch of finesse teams in the West. They really don't have an excuse if they lose a series to LeBron and Knicks cast-offs
