Most three point shooters camp around the perimeter and wait for kick out passes when the defense has been drawn in toward the paint. Curry is not only the greatest shooter ever, but he is also the best at creating his own shot. He doesn't need anyone to draw the defense away from him. He is so freaking quick off the dribble he can get a shot off against almost anyone.

But in the first two games the Warriors have not even needed him.

The shooting is off the charts as you said, but man do they space the floor and move without the basketball well. Cleveland doesn't even seem to be running plays. LeBron or Kyrie just pound the air outta the ball while everyone else stands around. Everybody except JR Smith, who recklessly try to penetrate the lane instead of being himself.

I think LeBron  is a horrible GM. It's showing in the 1st 2 games. Trading Wiggins for Love was idiotic. Tristan Thompson is a one trick pony who got paid because he has James's agent. How good would Joe Johnson be looking off the bench right now? They get next to nothing from their reserves. Tyron Lue is garbage as well. The curse of Cleveland lives on.

Kevin Love is also a great talent, but like Kyrie he is not very good on defense. I like Wiggins a lot, but if the Cavs had kept him instead of Love he would have been playing the same role as LeBron and they would not have meshed well together.

I don't think the Cavs need to completely blow up the roster. They just need a good pure PG and a little better coaching.

I think a lot of his issues can be learned and fixed and his talent as a scorer is great, needed,and can't be taught. The main issue with the Cavs is Love doesn't fit because him and Lebron play the same position. Both need to be on the block to be at there best. Also love I not a great defender and he needs to be hidden.

(06-08-2016, 05:18 PM)J24 Wrote: Who is he guarding though? It's usually The MVP or a guy with huge height advantage of hin. Maybe he gets Barbosa sometimes but usually he has a tough matchup for him.

(06-08-2016, 07:07 PM)jason Wrote: Whoever he is guarding is making 8 outta every 10 shots they take. It doesn't matter who it is. That's a great FT %, let alone FG %. He should be embarrassed. He also has 1 assist to LeBron in the series. He's literally doing nothing well. Hopefully that changes tonight.
