They would defend the three point line.

Stop saying they should get a hand in the face cuz that's not the problem!

The problem is they keep doubling or just totally loosing track of where their man is. Like tonight it happened to be Damon Jones! Of all people! The other night it was Luther head of all people! The night before it was Barry and Parker! Denver missed their clutch 3s or else they would have won too.

This is a problem! What the hell are the guards doing dropping down so low to double team inside? It makes no sense! I would rather curry and frye get gang raped inside than give up a 3! Dude most of the time they are not even trying to post up! Even better the ball didn't even get to that side yet and they are blatantly chilling below the foul line, enough to have a full sprint toward the 3 point shooter.

Let me explain someting....a hand in the face is gonna deter maybe fishmike from shooting over marv in a pick up game in the park. A nba player that makes their bread and butter on 3s can literally get shot with a shotgun in the face and will still make that three pointer, especially when they catch it in rythmn. Guys are catching it taking 2 steps and pop. That is like free ass off the alba thread!

nothing MArv could do could stop me from drilling 3's over his old ass.

The guarding 3's is really just a symptom of lazy defense. Guys dont stay with their man, or fight over screen, and are slow to rotate. The result? Open 3's.

Next time your at a game watch away from the ball. Our guys are lazy to chasing opposing guards.

AAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAH! Oh ****, I have tears swelling up.

The worst part is if opposition have big men shooters. I don't think we have one guy who can guard those type of players. Not Curry, Frye, Lee or Malik.

There was one series in teh SA game where Duncan hopped out on a screen and made our guard dribble out to half court to initiate the offense again. the next trip they run pick and role against us. There was enough room above the screen to drive a truck through. Instead of walking over the top(he didn't even have to fight) it looked like Marbs intentionally ran into Duncan. then it looked like Curry thought a group hug was going on because he didn't even look at Parker. He just hugged Duncan and Marbs. parker penetrates untouched.

I used to joke about Allan HOuston back in the days all the time with his false defensive effort. He would lose his man in the middle of a play. Allan would just stand there. Then his man would get the ball 30 feet away from Allan and Allan would run over with this false look of effort on his face. This look of "what just happened, I was all over my man, how in the world could he have gotten so open. Did someone stop time and then move him there". Then Allan's man would nail the three as Allan skipped out half asse with this look of pain on his face.

Marbs/Craw do the same thing. Someone sets a pick on Marbs. Marbs sees the pick coming. Marbs has every opportunity to run over the screen. Instead he runs into it. Doesn't fight at all to get through, but gets this look on his face of intensity that's supposed to make you think he's fighting through. It's so frustrating.

Winners know what type of effort they have to give to win. Losers think they are giving that effort even when they aren't. And they are legitimately shocked when they lose, because in their minds they are doing the right thing.
