Message: [QUOTE="Melancer46, post: 3483067, member: 1674"] Sucks to see, but this is just basically what the Dame/CJ backcourt does. If they're hot, they'll be competitive, but if they aren't, they're gonna lose pretty much every time. The Warriors can survive an off game from one of Steph/Klay because even if they aren't shooting well, you know Klay will be defending his butt off, both guys will be moving and putting so much pressure on the defense that it opens things up for their teammates. If Dame or CJ's jumpers aren't falling, they pretty much aren't doing anything for you. Steph is nothing special defensively, but Klay is and Steph is at least very active in passing lanes. Dame and CJ are both just total lazy liabilities defensively and they don't really move all that much offensively; they basically just try to break their man down the whole time so it just turns into inefficient offense if they aren't hitting contested jumpers.
