I might of got the number of games right in the series...NBA Finals...but picked the wrong team...I've watched many of the GS Warriors games throughout this season...and marveled at what they could do...lead, or come from behind...and use their bench to perfection...but now...in the post season...teams play different...and actually use strategy...and are COACHED!...

You ever wonder why the USA's Olympic Team is coached by Coach K of Duke?...chosen by the pro's?...cuz, it takes time to figure out the job...of coaching...who you emulate...what matchups work...what style of D and O fit...how to handle people...because he's been through it all...before...and he is the BEST at it...

The Cleveland Cavs are decidedly better prepared...and really, should be up by 3-0!...a shot missed by Lebron in the 1st and that's where this set could be...as most pundits felt, the Warriors would correct the defensive ploy of the Cavs...find ways to get Curry better, er any shots...and the games would swing the Bay Area way...wait, they play in Alameda...which is more like Oakland...

Last year, the Spurs (Coach Pop), devised a high motion O that got uncontested shots against LeBron and his then team, the Heat...James was lost in it...SA won...James moved back to Cleveland...got more blokes to follow...and what was the product, was a pretty good squad...not a premium one...

However...they do play D...and are forcing GS to do things that they haven't done all season...run an O...which apparently, they CAN'T!...the extent of it, is Curry comes off a couple of screens...the Cavs are still there...and he chucks up some highly contested 3's...and misses...

And the Cavs...walk the ball up...use Lebron as the PG...take 24 seconds to get their shot off...and the Warriors have no clue...they don't pressure him up the floor...they sit back and wait for the ball...eegads, it's hell for all coaches watching...adjust, GS, adjust...which brings me to this...

It takes years to coach...many of it as an assistant...to see what the strategies are...to figure out what to do...what scheme works best with whom you have...when to use spread...when to attack...when to call TO's...when to isolate...when to use motion...when to press...all things that it takes time, practice, and years...

Which the GS Coach has none of...he was a star player...and then a broadcast guru...er, color guy...and so...some bright GM thought...could be a coach...replaced a guy who could...coach...who now is the color guy...ha ha...so, Steve Kerr...is this 1st year coach...and is getting his rear handed to him...by a guy who has coached all over the world...

There are those out there that say, that LeBron is actually coaching this team...fuggit about it...the schemes that David Blatt is using...all his...after years of trial and error...as a former coach, I applaud the effort...and am happy to see the credit due is getting to the right guy...well, at least I'm giving him the credit...
