Mike Dantoni spread offense too much for the Spurs

[KRIT]

Houston wins one game by 30 and now the Spurs run is over and Houston is sweeping? Come on SBR.

This is the Rockets we are talking about. Spurs won't go away quietly. Pop will make adjustments. Spurs won't shoot this bad again. Rockets probably won't shoot this well two games in a row on the road.

D'Antoni schemes are over Pop's head.
Spurs players clueless on defense, they don't know what to do,
who to cover, how to cover. They can't set a spread and get
caught standing still. They can't cover the pick n' roll. Pau Gasol
is an old joke in the paint. Aldridge and Leonard are focused on
trying to score, not on figuring out the Rockets offense. You can't.
Parker is still quick but only in spurts, not constantly.
It's 4 seconds from a Spurs perimeter basket to a fast break, long pass
and bang - Rockets respond, this is demoralizing San Antonio.
Pops can't stop them in the half-court. They are too good !
Too fast, too accurate and too automatic in their execution of complex
offensive schemes that D'Antoni has taught them.

Rockets ML 205

Pretty much word for word what I saw.

you were on Spurs in game 1 right? and thought it was a lock after the line moved from 5.5 to 6?

Dantoni was made for today's NBA and is the perfect coach for Harden's style. All offensive focus.

So much for the almighty Mike D'Antoni.

Houston not athletic enough for these Spurs, if they aint hitting an insane amount of 3s they just cant hang 🙄

Pop started Kawhi on Harden and he shot 3/17....head of the snake.

Parker won't play again
