 PO 2013 1st Round : Nuggets (3) vs Warriors (6) |
Dernier message
posté par rantanplan : | Extrait d'un article du Denver Post qui se penche sur les ajustements défensifs à venir. Apparament, Denver se dirige toujours vers une équipe small ball, vu que Karl envisage carrément de coller plus ou moins durablement Chandler sur les pivots adverses en défense, pour une meilleure défense sur les pick'n'roll.
The Warriors exploited the Nuggets' two biggest weaknesses on defense this season — defending the pick-and-roll play and contesting 3-point shots. Golden State hit 14-of-25 shots behind the 3-point arc and continually exploited Denver's inability to defend the pick-and-roll play well.
Karl is charged with fixing those problems quickly or risk having his team again ushered out of the postseason after the first round.
Solving the screen/roll issue is two-fold: first, addressing the mistakes of those involved in the plays Tuesday at the Pepsi Center. But just as large a concern to the Nuggets' coaching staff is who wasn't involved in their pick-and-roll defense.
Golden State's adjustment from its 97-95 loss in Game 1 was to virtually eliminate all screen/roll action involving 6-foot-8 Wilson Chandler, arguably the Nuggets' best big defender against that play. Karl said Wednesday he may counter Friday by playing Chandler some at center, a lineup he in fact tried during the fourth quarter Tuesday.
In that quarter, Chandler was the center, guarding Festus Ezeli, in a lineup that included Ty Lawson, Andre Iguodala, Corey Brewer and Andre Miller. Chandler was involved in two screen/roll situations, and both times the Nuggets tried to trap Curry. The trap didn't work. On both plays Ezeli sprung loose to the rim for dunks on feeds from Curry.
In all, Golden State was 2-of-6 when Chandler was one of the primary screen/roll defenders, which is why the Warriors would like to stay away from that matchup. Golden State had much more success targeting Denver's centers, and the Nuggets played Kosta Koufos, JaVale McGee, Kenneth Faried and Anthony Randolph at the five spot during the game. Nine times McGee was pulled into defending the pick-and-roll play, more than any other Nuggets big man, followed by five for Koufos and four for Faried.
