Not too much to add, gotta say this site has higher level analysis then most. 

Agree with spamming the PNR with Steph and whoever AD is guarding. It generated tons of great looks. The problem is that it is a Huuuuge workload for Steph. Some of the mistakes and settling for step back 3s in the end comes from that fatigue IMO. Another potential issue is that it relegates the rest of the offense to standing in the corner. That’s fine for GP2 or DDV, but may be why Klay had trouble getting going. Not that we shouldn’t do it, we absolutely should, but it’s not an “I win” button. We also should give Poole a shot at it early, since if he has some success it would take the load off Steph. Some of this is overanalaysis, however. A lot of woes would have been solved if we just hit more open shots. We generated a ton of good looks that just didn’t go in. 

On D we overall played a good game. Lonnie walker of all people couldn’t miss a shot. It happens. But I agree we can’t give up the Lebron Steph switch so easily. Make them earn it.  Steph did a pretty good job on Lebron, but that leads to fouls on Steph and tires Steph out. Pre switch, hedge and recover, trap, play zone, there are a lot of options here.
