The Downbeat #1930: The Golden State Warriors' Kryptonite
Are the Utah Jazz poised to be the Golden State Warriors' kryptonite?In the 2016 NBA Finals we are seeing the Golden State Warriors absolutely put the beatdown on the Cleveland Cavaliers. While the Cavaliers could very well win the next two games in Cleveland after such lopsided games a la the Toronto Raptors, it seems very unlikely. The Golden State Warriors "small ball" renaissance is peak Nelly ball or 5 Seconds or Less basketball. It's like the perfect storm. Perfect point guard with perfect sidekick with perfect playmaking 4 and bench are combined to make the perfect 3 point shooting barrage. Many teams will be eager to try to copy the formula. They would be wrong to do so.
