Warriors lack of a post player is killing them

[smitty22]

Mark Jackson sitting there like say something now Bogut.

He was sitting there like when he had to call the game GS clinched to get to the finals. The emotional roller coaster for the guy has been like

This is the Warriors biggest issue, besides Curry not showing up for the full 48.

David Lee might be a game changer for the Warriors since he's the only big they have that is a legitimate threat in the post. The Warriors offense ran much better with him in the game, but we'll see if the Cavs adjust.

The Cavs took their foot off of the gas. David Lee sucks on defense and they'll get murdered in the paint on the glass to higher degree. TT and Mosgov would eat dude's food if he gets extended minutes.

This is the Warriors biggest issue, besides Curry not showing up for the full 48.

Why would he take that shot when he had missed 19 of his last 20 3point shots, many of which were just as wide open. Rhetorical question.

These nikkas can't rebound for shyt

They won the battle on the boards though, free throw disparity was the difference last night

Lee is a decent rebounder and would be far more effective than bogut. Bogut is in over his head this series. If Green could hit an open jumper, then the small ball lineup would be fine. But he's been off for so many months now :mjcry

Lee can rebound against his position, but going against Mozgov and Thompson for boards would be too much for him in my opinion

 

[feelosofer]

Lee can score but he\doesn't have the size or muscle bang with Thompson or Mozgov or Lebron. Plus he's a bigger defensive liability than even a hurt Bogut.

Lee compromises their defense, in the 4th quarter LeBron went to the rim, missed and Thompson got the put back, another play Bron made a layup over him.

I still think they should gamble with Lee. test it for the opening quarter and see how it plays out.

Comprises the defense? So what? FORCE the Cavs to prove that they can drop a quick 105. I think Lee is in and the warriors break 100 EASY.

The warriors will win this series because of their offense, not defense. He has to provide more than Bogut at this point.

Free throws should always go the Cavs way.

That's just one of the many problems I have with jump shooting teams.

 

[GoonbergScandal]

Benching Lee was the biggest problem. Lee sucks on defense, but is still the Warriors best post player on offense. They used to call Lee the white Chris Webber back in the day. Damn he fell off.

 

[DigitalDopeman]

Warriors look like they dont have a clue who their leader is on the court...they have nobody to get them str8 and calm them down and give directions like Lebron does the cavs. Also to me, David Blatt is doin a better job of coaching and scheming than Steve Kerr. Harrison Barnes ,draymond greene, and bogut ass has also dis a fvckin peared. The Warriors playin soft and looked defeated most of last game.

He saved himself with that fourth. He was going to get murdered if he kept playing how he played.

there was this point in a gsme when there was a loose ball right in front of him and he just stood and watch as Delly dove for it.

It was shameful, that displays no heart or grit, he just stands there and chews on his mouth piece. Little nikka scared to scrape his elbows and knees or something?

And what makes matters worst Draymond saw that and he basically called out the entire team agreeing with Kobe's tweet that The Cavs are playing with more heart.

 

[Kaypain]

But they are #1 in points scored in the paint

The search function on this site sucks but I said months the warriors were a jump shooting team

Maybe in FG%

[I.AM.PIFF]

I think it was Shaq who called him that a few years ago

 

[MrWestGrand]

they don't have anybody who can take it to the rack either. It's literally jump shots or nothing. I don't even think they'll ever be back in this position.

They got nikkas that can go to the rack, but they are litterly not finishing when they get there. Steve Kerr being exposed for allowing that jump shooting mentality to creep into his coaching philosophy. Bogut and Lee need to be on the floor together, and Steph needs to penetrate and dish more.
