@ people taking about what type of defense needs to play in order to beat a team with:
3 of the greatest shooters of all time
2 mvp's
2 players who have averaged 30+ pts
3 all league defenders
The best defense for cleveland is to:
1.Control tempo
2.Rebound
3.Limit turnovers
4.Hit open shots
5.Lebron/Kyrie both dropping 30-40 pts.
Cleveland needs to keep it simple on defense:
1.Switch everything
2.When GS gets a mismatch after a switch,double team,then rotate
3.Chase curry/Thompson off the 3 pt line.Both players are at their worst when they are trying to make plays off the dribble.
4.Play borderline(Hold,Pull jerseys,be more physical)
Durant is going to Durant...Last year in the wcsf he had games of 41 & 37 on Kawhi
The key to slowing down Durant is keeping him off the ft line and limiting his assist.But it's tough when you have shooters like curry/Thompson on the floor.
