It focuses on a particular play, Double Punch, that is a real go-to for the Golden State Warriors. The first option gives Steph Curry a chance for a quick open three. The second option gets Kevin Durant post position against a switched defender while Curry split-cuts with someone. The third option gives Durant an isolation. Three great options, and there is a third screener in the play so the defense can’t just load up with their vanilla pick and roll defensive schemes.
Last night, the play begged to be analyzed, as the Warriors used it three straight times in crunch time to come back against the Utah Jazz, and got 6 points out of it (though a Draymond Green 3 is surely not a great play outcome).
Co-starring Damian Jones as the young screener and Draymond Green who answers the screaming crowd with a gutsy 3 and Sun Tzu philosophy.
