I'm sensing sarcasm from Automatik unless you're also agreeing, in a sarcastic way. I don't want Wade's old broke ass unless he's coming off the bench and you know his ego isn't allowing that.

Unless the Cavs "supporting cast" morph into completely different players, I don't think they can keep up playing small ball.

They played small ball in Games 2 and 3 and they won. Not sure why this concept is hard to grasp.

Or even just call the ones where the GSW grab and lift the legs on the Cavs player. I mean, how do you not call that every time? I've dubbed it "The Kerr Screen" because they do it on almost every one, especially when they swing a player from one side of the court to the other.

It'll take more than just Curry being off. We need their guys to be off and we have to hit ours. They wont let JR have open looks anymore so shump has to step up. Hes shrinking in the spotlight. either that or hes hurt worse than hes letting on.

Game 2; just curry was off and we won.

Zwick logic: We will need more than just Curry being off to win.

Nice!

Bogut played significantly more in 2 & 3 than 4 & 5. GS figured out he's their weak link.

Cavs were out rebounding GS by a nice margin when they won before they went small.. the last 2 games cavs were +5 and -6

but no, sleeper, nothing has changed.

It's a game of adjustments. I think Mozgov needs more minutes because he can put points on the board and give you plenty of rebounds. On the pick and roll, you don't switch and you hedge out Curry and have Lebron/TT cover the backdoor cut while Movgoz recovers on his man.

What killed them last night was the second chances GS were getting with the offensive rebounds.

Yeah, I know. Right now, the Cavs, to me, are like a mouse that the Warriors (the cat) are just playing/toying with. They know they've got them right where they want them and there's not much they (Cavs) can do about it. They've figured out the formula in how to beat them and the Cavs don't have much of an answer, personnel wise. Still hoping for a stunner.

Cavs should just start Perkins and have him set continuously moving hard screens until he is ejected.

I'm surprised he hasn't seen some time. I know he's garbage but he might be able to "deter" some Warrior traffic in the lane.

at least bring Perk up top to switch on Curry then land on him when he tries to block his shot.

Zwick says that the Cavs are exposed when it was a 1 point game with 4 minutes left in the game, makes sense.
