🏀 Just how smart is Alex Caruso?
In Game 1 of the Finals, he broke down the Carlisle's zone play before it even happened.
One possession. Full defensive IQ on display.
Watch how he kills the play before it starts.

🏀Warriors - Top Lock Counter
GSW runs tons of off-screen to free up Curry, so DEF often use top-locking to deny him.

Warriors designed a interesting and potential counter: Curry cut backdoor , then loops back out for the shot.

Yesterday on light years podcast, I heard sam mention a trade proposal involving Brandon Ingram without Wiggins. While it sounds appealing, the trade doesn’t work due to salary cap rules. Here’s why👇

🏀Final Possession:Warriors vs Clippers
GP2 immediately made one of his signature steals.

Kerr, as always, embraced the chaos and didn’t call a timeout.

Mann prevented Curry from getting a shot off, but Green still found Curry relocating. Unfortunately, Curry couldn’t convert the shot.

Warriors 145 PNR - Counter Switching
The "145 PNR" is a common tactic for the Warriors, running a 1-4 PNR first, then a 1-5 PNR.

This concept is one of Kerr’s favorite ways to counter switches—he might’ve borrowed it from Popo!

It was also a key weapon in tonight’s win over the Mavericks.
