You are the Cavs coach, how do you beat Golden State?

[Random_Guy]

I do not believe there is no possible way for Cavs to win the series, the talent is obviously there, the execution and game planning is just poor.

What says you ISH? What line up do you play? What defensive schemes do you try and run?

I would try a line up of Love/Lebron/JR/Shump, with Irving and Delly sharing minutes for the PG. I would rather the Cavs put on a back court of Delly and Shump but that's not going to happen.
If the Cavs are going to play half court ball, they need defense and the optimal roster would be Frye/Lebron/Jr or Love/Shump/Delly IMO. Let Lebron work the ball like last year. Irving is great but the Warriors are too good of a switching team.

Thoughts?

[Random_Guy]

Also I would put single coverage on Curry and Thompson with Delly/Shumpert. Make the game extremely physical and if the Cavs get into the bonus, start hacking to force the Warriors to play small ball, and then go with the Frye/Lebron/Jr or Love/Shump/Delly
line up

They can't play small, they suck at playing that style. Go big or go home, mozgov or Tristan will be their only chance at a decent lineup.

JR disappeared and Shumpert doesn't hustle as much as Robertson did during the OKC series.

Problem is Tristan and Mozgov doenst move nearly as well as Ibaka/Roberson, not to mention the massive difference in offensive ability outside the paint (Roberson and Ibaka was actually consistent in game 1-6). They need to space the floor so lebron can go to work.

Take Lebron out.


Bench gets sick and tired of carrying that scrub whenever he sits.

Get in a time machine and bring any version of 09-13 Bron back with you. Maybe skip '11.

Have Bron jumpkick Draymond's nuts. That's the only person who will get a personal foul instead of getting tossed out. Draymond foul, two shot Lebron.

[GINOBILI!]

Can I be GM instead?

Offensively

Stop trying to post up James. He doesn't have a post game. Put him back out on the perimeter and play pick and pop with Love. Do the same with Irving

Defense
Keep trapping Curry and Thompson. But they need to stop reaching and keep their hands up. And while two guys are trapping, the other three need to be in better potion to jump passing lanes and rotate.

The Cavs have plenty of talent and the highest payroll in the league.

Their problems arise from you know who and you know what.

[nathanjizzle]

beat the hole. run iso for kyrie on curry is the first option, only driving to the hole, lebron driving the lane is the second option. lebron isnt allowed to shoot from any distance, only driving the hole and is only allowed to pass to kevin love. love cannot be anywhere outside of the 3 point line. Jr smith has to cut atleast once on every offensive possession. also, slow the game down, use atleast 20 seconds of the shot clock on every possession.

[MP.Trey]

Step down from the job and reccommend a real coach who knows what he's doing.

They have Kyrie and an overrated stat padder that Jerry West was ready to lose his job over to keep off his team.:oldlol:

Love is the most overrated piece of crap in the NBA, and now he's faking concussions.

Would have to do it to multiple players.
