Man what

None of these nikkas can really be guarded by NBA defenses thats why teams constantly send doubles at nikkas like Harden, Lillard and Curry during the playoffs

Kawhi was getting doubled and trapped in Game 1, we all know nobody can guard these dudes


Breh this is my point. I've seen MJ, Kobe Bron and just about any other great player be the obvious dominate player on the court and they've never been put in a Box to finish a game. Never

Is Steph THAT feared? He's that great that this man had to use a BOX n One in the FINALS? I'm a huge Curry fan but even I don't think he's this great to cause NBA defenses to basically not guard the rest of his team

Dog, I completely feel you. But it's obvious at this point that he is VERY much feared. And yes, the shyt makes no sense to me sometimes. But we aren't NBA coaches and shyt who know and have more access to info that we have. I just throw my hands up with the shyt seeing so many cats watching this nikka's moves on defense to make sure he doesn't go off. shyt's crazy.

I don't think they feared Steph it was just a good strategy to play once Klay went down. I'll take my chances with Iggy beating you from 3. Same thing on the other end with Siakam you take a chance backing off him daring him to shoot because it is the right strategy. Another reason it was effective is because Steph is a weak player he can't bully his man and create a good pass or shoot over the top, where as Lebron or any other big forward with handles can bully the main defender on the box and 1 and make the correct pass over the top. It clearly worked and steph was in his feelings at the end of the game. Give props to nurse for making in game adjustments which a lot of coaches are afraid to do.

What's crazy is this is not new in regards to Curry. Teams would rather LOSE than let Curry score. :mindblown:

I've never seen this type of defensive behavior toward one player. It's a losing strategy. I felt this way when the Cavs sent constant doubles at Steph instead of Durant while KD was averaging 35ppg in the Finals in 2017. Toronto was playing good defense on Curry without the Box, it's like they have no faith or no hope :damn:

What is it with this guy that coaches lose common sense and go to all out extreme measures against Curry... and they still lose :mjlol:

This coach in College held Curry to zero points by doubling him without the ball the entire game and got beat by 30!!! :pachaha: Coaches just become obsessed with stopping this man

What part of they were down 10 with six minutes to go dont you understand. You out here tryna suck Curry dry when you damn well the defense did its job. It wasnt about showing curry respect but showing the other warriors disrespect by leaving them open and hoping they would miss. You take your chances leaving dray open. Curry showed as usual he can't beat a double team.
This is it right here.

Warriors stans know it and tried to get out infront of it with this thread to spin it, nice try.

I’m sit back and enjoy the juelzing though:popcorn:

YOU DONT HAVE A POINT
YOURE JUST dikkSUCKING.

ITS ALREADY BEEN POINTED OUT
STEPH ONLY HAD 4 BUCKETS IN THE 2ND QRT
AND 2 BUCKETS IN THE 3RD QRT.

HE HAD A VERY SUB PAR GAME BEFORE
THEY WENT TO THE BOX AND 1.

ITS ALSO ALREADY BEEN POINTED OUT
THEY WENT TO IT BECAUSE THEY WERE DOWN 10 AND NEEDED TO PRESSURE THE BALL.

So nobody else has been down 10 in the NBA Finals before? Nobody else has had an offensive talent that is unstoppable.

Like I said MJ, freaking Michael Jordan was not put in a Box and he is the most unstoppable one on one player I've ever seen. Not KD, Bron, Kobe or anyone else you can think of. If they were stopping Curry before, why use the Box n One then? you sound foolish. This is one of the most extreme measures I've ever seen in the NBA.

You simply do not leave other NBA players unguarded like that. The element of surprise and shear audacity of it all is why the Warriors went scoreless, not the effectiveness of the scheme. Iggy or anybody else that wide open is going to eat that defense up now that they've seen it. It's gonna be like practice shots. :manny:
