That's right. It is about communication (or lack thereof), but what both Chuck and Shaq fail to mention is that Golden State's Read-and-react system, with the high bball IQ players they have, creates chaos in opposing defences, creating mismatches all over the court that they thrive on exploiting with back cuts, slipped screens and the like. It's the chaos that creates the miscommunication that they then feast on.

[@kevinmoy3752]

Chuck is right but he's not doing a great job at explaining why he's right. Undefended layups are almost guaranteed 2 points. That's about equivalent to shooting 66% from three. Steph shot 50% from three in both games, and poole shot about 58%. You have to protect the rim first. If one defender hedges, the other has to stay back. In that play, both defenders were chasing curry, and klay got a free 2 points. It's either poor communication or bad basketball like chuck and shaq said. Kenny is getting caught up with the player mentality. It's not the right play, but it's natural to feel that pressure from the splash brothers and make those mistakes.

[@judyclarkson5887]

Wow,, such an eloquent way to put it. Kenny simply explaining the mentality of the opponents having the duty to guard some of the best shooters ever, but Shaq and Chuck's point is simply saying that that's a dumb play bcos as great as they are, open layups are a much more guaranteed buckets compared to 3s even by greatest shooters ever. Appreciate it man

The right way to defend then is switch everything like how the Rockets did in 2018. Force them to play isolation. Take your chances in an isolation over an uncontested layup or a wide open 3. It also slows the offense and force a play that doesn't get the crowd going as much as an open dunk or 3

[@brianschwartz7937]

This is a situation where all of three of them were right. I get what Charles was saying, you just can't give up open uncontested layups like that. Better to force an uncontested 3 with a 60% chance of success than to just give up an easy 100% layup/dunk. And Shaq was right, too. That doesn't necessarily have to be the choice. They should have switched. If the Nuggets had executed the switch properly, Klay never would have been that open. Execute the switch properly and you don't give up the free layup or the open 3. But Kenny was also right. The Nuggets were making mistakes BECAUSE the Warriors forced them into it. They are so quick and so deadly and so good at hitting those 3's over and over and over again on every single possession, and they only need a fraction of a second of an opening. So as the defender chasing Steph all over the court you're so afraid of what he can do and just laser-focused on, "I gotta get there, I gotta get there, I gotta get there"......and then you don't make or hear the "switch" call. So you miss the communication because it was all happening so fast you didn't have time to think about it......and now, BOOM, Klay's gone. And then the next time down the court, you take an extra half second to make sure Klay stays covered, and now Steph has it and you're down 5. The Warriors force their opponents into those mistakes. The Warriors force you to pick your poison. Charles is technically right about which poison is (marginally) better to pick, but Kenny's point is you still end up dead either way.
