“Rockets’ Secret Weapon: The Daring Defense That Stunned the Warriors in Game 2”
This is a standard Warriors play that typically frees up Curry for an open 3-point attempt or allows the team a one-man advantage on a rotating defense. Defender Alperen Sengun takes an extra step toward Curry to ensure he is corralled before recovering to Moses Moody. Moody does the right thing and blows by the recovering Sengun, but Jalen Green is immediately in the lane to contest while Sengun recovers to Green’s man, Quinten Post. The Warriors get an attempt from the corner, but it’s Gary Payton II shooting over a closing Amen Thompson, which is a shot the Rockets are more than happy to allow.
