Sorry to :deadhorse: but I can't get over the coach's inability to deal with this trapping bullshit.

I'm not half the Xs and Os guy some of you are, but since they know the trap and double team are coming, can't they set something up to get the ball out of Dame's hands, to an unguarded player, before it gets there?

Can't they devise a way to "trap the trap"?

Mere fans want to know.

This is silly. Seth Curry should be getting more time instead of Turner.

If we had no Turner on this team, we'd be able to play Seth more minutes.

Curry is really, really bad at being a point guard though.

They can flash a big from the low to high post, pass him the ball and then run cutters.

There's lots that can be done.

That is one of the things that popped into my mind.

I love that offense :)

I'd rotate and have CJ bring the ball up at times. Even insert Hood into a starting role and have him bring it up. Mix it up
 
I mean he can’t practice alone but I would like to see him add pushing the ball quickly to this game. Like we see Curry and Green do, we need to run back fast after teams make buckets to keep them on their heels.

Not sure but this literally makes no sense.

Dame has been shooting step backs since his rookie year....

I assume he means the Harden “stepback” Lol the legal travel

I really wish that DraftExpress College video of Lillard was still around.

He was one of the best transition guards in the NCAA and had stats to prove it.

I think it's coaching, not Dame.

Rachel literally made this up. Listen to what she says:

"And I think you will see him working on his step back three this Summer to add to his game cause that's what he's missing in this series.

Dame never said it's something he is going to or needs to work on.

wait a minute...that can't be right...that would mean we have a thread here based upon bullshit. That's not the S2 I know

I'm pretty sure all of DraftExpress is archived on ESPN now.
 
I'd like to see him become an elite rebounder and rim protector. Also since Wheels is out Dame could call the games for radio while he plays.

Ohh don't be ridiculous. He cant run from the floor to the broadcast booth during plays.
He has to do the pregame, halftime, and post game shows. Save the team some salary considering he owes them for being such trash!

Fuck that...

Based on the OP he SPECIFICALLY stated he was working on his teleportation skills.
 
Thread title seems to be a lie.

Nowhere does Damian say that.

He already has perfected the step-back 3, so I don't think he's going to spend his summer on it.

Not that he should listen to me, but IMO Dame should work on a reliable floater, ala CJ.

For one thing, he'd take a lot less pounding than taking it to the backboard every drive. For another, it would help keep the defense off balance, increasing his effectiveness when he does drive. For yet another, there is absolutely no question he could perfect it if he were determined to do so.

:cheers:

Mike him up!

The BIGGEST thing Dame should work on this season (if I was coaching him I would say):

Movement without the ball and having the physical fitness to do it.

That's his next evolution IMHO.

The way Steph Curry moves without the ball is amazing and he never.. stops... moving...

He gets SO MANY easy shots from it.

Really? CJ brings the ball up probably 35-40% of the time.

That also demands a scheme change from Stotts. The Warriors constantly are setting off ball screens too.

Bro I don't need a scheme change from Stotts. I need a COACHING change from Stotts.
