Actually, unlike in their usual games, the GSW did well in rebounding in this game and got off more shots than their opponents. However, their offense was quite a mess and the Rockets certainly had better defense. Livingson & Green have to be the culprits for the loss, as they combined for 9 turnovers, almost the same as the whole Rockets team combined. Livingston only played 15 min. but with 4 turnovers.
There is nothing wrong for the GSW to shoot more 3's. It's their strong point. Especially in this game, the Rockets had strong hoop defense (9 blocks vs. only 3 blocks for the GSW), so the GSW really needed to shoot more 3's, even though it might seem those shots were not falling for them. What they needed to do was to provide some more offensive rebounding to improve the odds, plus beefing up their defense. Curry's ego gets ahead of himself and he will never admit his shortcomings (weak body & lack of athleticism). He will continue with his casual passes, weak body defense and low altitude layups that are prone to block.作者: alanshow5891 時間: 2018-5-23 10:36 PM
