What's new

2016-17 NBA PLAYOFFS THREAD

I think we need to hound the **** out of Chris Paul the way the Bulls used to do to John Stockton, stick to Blake Griffin like glue and make someone else like Redick, Moute or DAJ try to playmake.

Then we need to make hay agains the Clips' 2nd unit. Their main guys are going to have to play heavy minutes and it might weigh on them late in games, especially at SLC altitude.

Clippers played well this year when they played with pace, we need to impose our slow pace on them and not let Chris Paul & Griffin get easy transition baskets.


Also don't let Chris Paul get to 'his spot'. He'll hit that 15 footer all day if you let him. Also Blake can hit 3's now, we need a mobile PF who can guard him out to the 3pt line.

His percentage is as bad as it's always been, he's just shooting a slightly higher volume. Still only hitting one three every other game. Not something I'd really worry about.

1/3 is pretty good for someone like Blake who can just drive and dunk on you if he choose to.


All I'm saying is you can't just leave him on the 3pt line and let him shoot wide open 3's anymore.
 
Game 4, WCF, Jazz-Lakers, May 11, 2008. Jazz win a thriller in OT. LHM drives his car around and later arrives at the arena.

Actually, April 25, 2010 versus the Nuggets. Jazz won 117-106.

I'm so excited about the playoffs! I didn't know I'd be this excited, but I am!
