also they're going to be really susceptible to foul trouble... steph was ok last night but has gotten into foul trouble before against the rockets. dray fouled out. they're gonna have to figure out how to deal w/ targeted switches and a physical game for the three guys (well, klay is usually fine) that they absolutely cannot afford to lose

this game should be fun. splash bros will have the greenest of green lights, probably more high pick n roll between dray and curry which is still one of their deadliest plays (that we rarely see any more), rockets are going to blitz curry so hard so there should be plenty of 4 on 3s if he can keep from doing dumb turnovers. dray will be doing more pushing on offense, iggy will have to make a couple threes, got to get anything from Livingston. kerr will probably give minutes to bench dudes that havent played yet (bogut can play vs nene, maybe cook when rivers plays) to see if they have anything to offer. looney will be important, his offensive rebounds yesterday were massive and he can guard harden respectively without fouling. feels good to be the underdog again!

kinda excited about this series again now! two chances to prove they can still win against a team built to beat them and do it without durant is a lot more interesting than what came before.love looney, would be great to see him step up.

if KD misses the rest of the playoffs and the Dubs don't win it all, I feel like that definitely makes it more likely that everyone comes back next year to make amends. which is basically my nightmare.

lowe has been writing and podcasting about this, but portland really has no answer for the murray/jokic pick and roll. they have hood on murray now, picking up at like half court, and jokic is responding by setting super high screens and getting the ball with a ton of space
― k3vin k., Friday, 10 May 2019 03:03 (five years ago) link
it seemed pretty clear when the series started that portland would have a terrible time trying to contain jokic.

a crippled-shoulder kanter has done himself proud, but having a healthy nurkic as starter with kanter available for backup minutes would make this series even more competitive.

after further review of the uniforms, the blazers are anarcho-commies and the raps are marxist-leninists

It actually happens a fair amount that a veteran player who's kicked around a while on several teams and is viewed as iffy, lands on a new team, gets a few minutes, plays well when inserted for a look-see, gets a morale boost, gains confidence, earns a rotation spot, and plays better than they ever have before. The real test will be if Hood plays this well all through next season, but for now, he's happy, confident, playing loose and focused.
