Saw Snyder getting interviewed on the news and he was asked if he was going to make any changes and he said no, that they would stay the course.

Though even if he were going to make changes he would probably keep it secret anyway.

PLAY TO YOUR STRENGTHS. DOMINATE ON THE DEFENSIVE GLASS, STOP TRANSITION AT ALL COSTS, MAKE THEM DEFEND IN THE HALFCOURT FOR 24 SECONDS. MAKE IT ****ING UGLY, WEAR THEM OUT, HARD FOULS AT THE RIM, MOVE THE BIG UP ON A PICK BUT DONT SWITCH AND HAVE PLAYERS READY TO TAKE OR MAKE CONTACT IF THEY DRIVE AND JUST BE PERFECT ON ROTATIONS. MAKE THE GAME NOT FUN FOR THEM.

This is SPOT on.. There's a major ****ing issue tho.. The didn't build the team to do this. clearly.... They built the team so Rudy could be a sort of one man army (surely they were counting on Favors too) they built the team so that Rudy could pick up a lot of the slack (from players like JJ and Diaw) by himself, not to amplify Rudy's effectiveness (thats done with the tactics/gameplan)..

FWIW - The bucks seem to be trying to build such a team.

Means Mack chasing Curry after the blow by and Livingston shooting over Mack. Staying the course......

I agree with all of this. The biggest problem I see is we rely on too much ISO and on ball screen and roll. The Warriors were built to defend this, and they largely have players that can switch everything without being disadvantaged. We need a lot more off the ball movement. We also need to exploit the mismatches that are available. Last game there were at least a couple times when Gobert had Curry guarding him in the paint, but he never got the ball. Rudy needs to be aggressive and pound the ball.

The other thing we need to do is drive when they guard us close, which is what they do. They defend the 3 really well, but that leaves them vulnerable to a drive or drive and kick. We had a good run with Hood doing this til the end of the third, then we reverted to taking contested jumpers.
 
We should go big, Favors + Gobert. Thats the only way we can dominate them. And Gobert must play 40+ mins efficiently for us to win.

That would be nice to play them together but that requires a healthy Favors. He is only playing a few minutes a game right now. A healthy Favors playing 30 minutes a game would make a huge difference for us.
