      Love drifts to a spot and Milsap can't get back in time to contest the 3s.



      But it wasn't just a couple of Hawks overreacting to the threat of Lebron penetrating. Other Hawks wouldn't rotate over to Love either from the weak side.



      Why show aggressively on Lebron when he has the ball outside the arc? Go under the pick and make him shoot 3s.


      They shifted towards LeBron all series long, they really wanted someone there to meet him at the paint.. I understand the strategy because they have no one to guard him 1 on 1, but they left too many people open. You can't continue to give it up when a team is shooting that well.

          Well they were just outmatched..

          But me personally, I would rather see if LeBron beats me with 40 than leave a shooter. Because leaving one shooter leads to scrambling and leaving another shooter, and multiple shooters then get into a rhythm.

              Worked for SA in 2014.

              Let Bron get his but pretty much play deny on everyone else.

                  Bosh and Wade also didn't show up that year and SA was also very deep that year.

                    It hasn't been that bad yes ugly looking games at times but they have been close games. A lot better then having a lot of blow outs like we have had in a lot of playoff games this year.

                      Big part of that strategy was relying on the fact that no one else was a threat off the dribble...***nning out and funneling guys like Norris Cole, Shard Lewis, bad knee Wade was a no brainer. I wouldn't give Kyrie that much room...

                            That's what he's saying though.. They forced Bosh and Wade to be able to make plays on their own.. And for the most part they couldn't.

                              Wow when did that happen? I didn't see that during the game and I didn't see that being talked about on TV.
