What’s an illegal screen anyway?


Yeah, but if you want that call, you better be trying to fight through the screen...

I said Celtics in 7 and don't really have reason to think otherwise.

That's not illegal. You're allowed to move to the basket.

It's amazing how bad the Celtics are at passing off the dribble. They had so many unnecessary turnovers. Everything beyond a simple left to right chest pass on the perimeter seemed like too much asked in game 2. Also, I admire Horford's ability to stretch the floor, but it's also sad how he can't even exploit a guy like Curry or klay in the post. He literally had absolutely no chance in the post.
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

Tatum/Brown and Klay are all sub 48% TS in this series. That's wild.

Klay's effectively unplayable for us if we're being honest with ourselves, but he's such a threat that if you leave him remotely open to start he can still drop 40 on 15 shots in 3 quarters and just end a game. And he probably will in game 3 or 4.

That how I see it: Boston wins both at home with Game 3 being a 12+ win, Game 4 a close one.

Lol no, they don't. Horford did not even attempt to get around Draymond on that set by the way. Just a well executed play. You guys could learn a lot from it. Just need a GOAT scorer to go with it.

That's pretty impressive considering he's never done anything remote to that in the PS in his entire career.

A kid can dream.

At this point I'm just wondering why Klay is playing >25 minutes OK. I would prefer him and GPII split minutes going forward in the series so long as his health continues to improve. I love Klay, but this is a tough Finals and we need to be realistic about him at this point.

edit: One game sample size theater, but seeing that Klay was a net 0 +/- in a 20 point win is not shocking to me in the least. I know that Kerr recognizes this and needs to address it. Let's see if he will.

On a positive note, I am extremely confident that we will take a game in Boston/regain HCA and that Klay will have one good shooting night.

Lol no they don't. You're allowed to move to the basket as an offensive player. It's on the defense to not illegally impede their way.

Warriors set one screen here and it wasn't Draymond, and the only way it would have been called is if the Celtics showed any effort to get through it physically.

Draymond goes right for the defenders chests, extends his arms and moves them. Three times.

So then three defensive fouls?

If he grabbed/tugged them as they were attempting to move around him you would have a case. They just took it and got backed away as he pressured towards the basket.

There are 50 uncalled fouls in every NBA game. This is not one of them. Strange hill to die on.

I've always had the theory that some players cannot win a championship. Like, you could put them on the end of the bench of the Dream Team in the gold medal match against Angola, and they'd lose. Tracy McGrady. DeMarcus Cousins. Is Castillo among them? The theory is being put to the test as we speak, my friend.


Put Carmela on that list :lol:


Ha. I just realized that Cousins has actually won a gold medal. Eh. The theory is still intact, but it only applies in the League, I guess. On home soil, where guys are entrenched in the NBA/team culture.

You're super hard to understand, but if you're saying that you're being legitimate in asking if there were three defensive fouls on the play, no, there were not. There was no foul on the play. It was an appropriate no-call. I'm just wondering why this innocuous play is being belabored.
