Last night, the Warriors displayed the kind of ball movement and player movement that gets most coaches up off their chairs in amazement, and Coach Nick was no exception. He breaks down how their offense works and why it is so hard to guard, especially when Steph Curry is willing to do something no other super star is willing to do.

The Warriors system and Curry’s unselfishness make the players around them better. Poole, Lee, Toscano -Anderson, Wiggins, Looney, Payton all playing their best in this system. And if we look back throughout the years - Zaza, Livingston, Javale, Ezeli, Speights to name a few all flourished because the Warriors play to everyone’s strengths rather than just focus on hero ball.
yessssir my boy zaza
Dang. I miss Livingston. And Mo buckets. And those Zaza's screens
😂😂😂
Good times!
Livingston was so perfect in the system. And that turnaround jumper was automatic
@@robertreyes8792 that 2nd unit was amazing with a 6’7 PG leading the attack
Livingston's story of raising from the ashes of major injury to having a long NBA career, a champion.
If I could choose to be on any bench in the NBA it’d be the warriors. Their encouragement and spirit for the game is evident from top to bottom. Say what you want about Steve Kerr but upholding a culture like this is the mark of good players and good coaches
For real, whole stadium was cheering Gary last night. What other team can have a roleplayer shine like that
@@jeeneeuz Portis for the bucks reggie for the clips
@@elfatherandrews Reggie is like the 6th best player on that team lol, GP2 is like the 12th.
Durant disagrees.
I could recall a lot of Warriors fans bashing Kerr the last two seasons lol. They just needed to find free agents that fit the system and the way Kerr wants to play.
This is why I roll my eyes at people who discredit Steve kerr and say he just took credit for Mark Jackson's team. Mark Jackson's offense wasn't half as well schemed as kerr's.
People act like Mark Jackson drafted the warriors core😂
Take curry out of the team, and Kerr would have been fired ages ago!!
Kerr is just lucky. Even Walton should there isn't much to coaching a curry Led team, they went 24 and 0.
Hows he doing in Sacramento?
How did Kerr do when Curry was injured? Dude couldn't coach his way out of a paper bag.
His ideas are good, but without Steph, they are just good ideas.
@@holymsophy Lmao Walton took over for Kerr for 24 games after they'd already had a whole season playing Kerr's system... and Walton didn't change the system. That's what an assistant coach is supposed to be able to do. People who don't make this distinction have no business discussing coaches.
@@Alic4444 just to show you don't even know what you were talking about.
I'm a warrior fan. I watch all games. Kerr couldn't start the season. So Kerr wasn't there.
@@Alic4444 and my point is, it's not the system. It's Curry. A system means if it is good anyone can do it.
Kind of like in New England. Was it Brady or Belichik? (it was Brady)
Is it Kerr's system or Steph? It's Steph. Take away that, and you have a shitty team. So spare Kerr the accolades.
It's nice seeing Curry have bad games, and the Warriors still winning. Had this team being the #1 or 2 seed in the west this season, and so far things are looking great.
th-cam.com/video/XdXufGDPfVw/w-d-xo.html
For them to beat Charlotte by 22 points and Steph curry only shooting 6/15 from the field finishing with 15 points says a lot for other players contributing and stepping up from the team.🏀💯
I still remember when they goes 15-50 in bubbles league without Curry
@@KidnapT exactly they really have delvoped the role players over the last two seasons.🏀😁
Curry never has truly bad games, his influence on offense does not depend on him making or missing shots. Unless he loses his GOAT shooter reputation, his gravity has to be respected even if he's 0 for 10 on the night and that gives his teammates more room to make shots
GSW fans appreciate the beauty of the total team motion offense, and the "hot babe" basketball joy it inspires. For new Premier League fans (inspired by Ted Lasso), the Warriors emulate several "Total Football" tactics made popular by the Dutch in the 1970's. This includes creative movement, spontaneity and switching where each player reacts and responds to the movements by their own team.
Do real people make these comments or bots learning English
Yes there are some similar concepts like triangle spacing and players moving organically but still keeping the organization
@@youngboomerragevictim8857 lol
@@youngboomerragevictim8857 No my friend, that's just written English with correct grammar, parenthetical phrases, commas, and quotes used correctly. Someone learning English would probably get all of those things wrong. Hell, most people on the internet get those things wrong. You may be confused by the long, complex sentence structure.
*They did use "by" instead of "of" in the last sentence.
@@JayzsMr did this man just define tiki taka but for basketball
Steph is so underrated. Even if he doesn’t score he play so well. If he’s on fire it’s game over.
how is he underrated? just say he makes a difference even when he's not scoring.
@@yugurtz most of the people don't give him credit for what he does on the court. Setting screens, making his team mates job easier with his movements even in "off nights". If he's on fire is automathic game over for everyone.
@@yugurtz As great as ppl think he is, he's still underrated. I mean that coz most ppl think he kills teams with his shooting. But he uses that reputation to fool defenses to earn open shots to his teammates and he doesn't even get an assist for that but I guarantee you, those shots aren't there if not for him. No other superstar is even willing to do what he does. Take Lillard for instance, who is seen as a great shooter despite shooting barely 40% just once in his career... Have you seen him taking advantage of the attention he gets from defenses to create shots for others? No he plays hero ball. CJ runs around and plays somewhat like Steph but it doesn't quite work coz he didn't attract double teams.
He's not over nor underrated, everybody knows he's one of the top guards.
His assetts are levelled some by his defensive size, athletic (in)ability) and historical not-so-clutchness
@@shaft9000 Lol. your comment is riddled with so many stereotypes its hard to even start with. Athleticism isn't just ability to jump. It's even more hard to be constantly on move, run around 3 miles a game, keep your heart rate in check and properly execute your offense. Run around as much as him and we wouldn't when be able to think straight until we catch breath. And his "clutchness" is just a lazy talk show narrative. He's had so much playoff siccess and playoff shooting records, it doesn't even make sense. The only time he shrunk from his usual self is 2016 finals where he was playing with a sustained injury. We can easily pick such instances of LeBron or Jordan in playoffs too if we want. It's a good thing we don't.
Now imagine adding Klay next to Curry... The pin downs will be unstoppable
I came here to say this!!!
All those misses people saw in the vids, Klay makes those at a good clip. Wiggins will cover Klay's defensive responsibility and all Klay gotta do is focus on shooting and scoring.
Having The big white dude (forgot his name) help Draymond with passes and rebounds will help so much when Klay comes. Now they have. Two 3rd options in Wiggins and Poole.
@@alejandroserrano7755 bejelica?
@@alejandroserrano7755 I'm not 100% sure Poole will be a 3rd option (for this season) because he tends to be a very streaky shooter and scorer for his career but I can safely say he will be a major x-factor this season in terms of offensive input for them.
Nobody talking about how good defensively the warriors are, at this point they don't need Curry's offense in some games to actually win, just defense
Yup‼️
Facts. I think they have the #1 defensive rating in the NBA at the moment? It's not even that they have great single defenders, just really smart team defenders. Give credit to Draymond for that, man may be a clown, but he may be the smartest man playing the game right now.
@@kingoffedoras9932 Fucking facts . It reminds of the way Ben Wallace used to play in his Pistons days Green does so many lil things that you don't see on the stat sheets but when it's all say and done the man is a fucking genius on the court . He is uncanny and savyy asf as a basketball player .
Wiggins Draymond and Garry payton jr are some lockdown defenders
You mean Payton
The warriors are the reincarnation of the early 2000s Spurs and a team with a unique offensive and defensive identity that was built for competing for championships providing they fill their roster with talented players who can forego their egos and play as a team. Absolutely love Kerr for instituting that culture!
Kerr took the best parts of all the teams he's been with: bulls (triangle offense + goatlevel superstar), spurs (team play + defense) and the nash suns (pace and space)
They actually don't need that much talented players. Curry and Klay are enough for them. What they needed are skilled players that don't have ego. Look at the roster now. Most of them are really not talented. They are working hard to gel with their other teammates and this is the result. If they are healthy and continue to play like this, most likely they'll go to finals with Klay Thompson. Honestly this team is better than the warriors team when Durant was injured so as long as this team is healthy during playoffs, most likely they'll go to finals.
@@426Studios I agree, this team has much more depth that the Durant team and with Poole blossoming he'd do well coming off the bench once klay returns.
I don't know how Curry can get the numbers he does with at least 1 player draped on him full time.
This is a good example why the Ws stick with players that may be a little lesser talent, but either understand the offense or have several years experience (JTA, Damion Lee).
And, this is why rookies will struggle in the Ws system.
Wiggins is still struggling.
Eh he isn’t doing great but his 4th quarter scoring is always there and he’s been defending well. He understands the system he just isn’t aggressive for his talent. He sleeps with efficient 15-18 point nights
@@dratiger yet still a significant upgrade from DeAngelo Russell or say Harrison Barnes lol
What we're seeing now is the fruits of our labor from klays first injury and steph's broken hand year JTA LOON DLEE POOLE that was their baptisms by fire year barring injuries it's all GRAVY from here
I feel like the defense breathes a sigh of relief when someone as lethal as Steph sets a screen, because he can't shoot, nor is he running round and round the 3 point line, so they have a false sense of security, letting Poole, Porter and Wiggins get open for 3s.
Yeah that's the effect of Curry setting screens. Giving defenders a false sense of security. Next thing they see, Curry is already wide open for a shot or a drive to the basket.
😂 so true. “Oh good he’s just setting a screen, he’s not going to shoot.” Then he rushes off to an open space and is now wide open for a three.
I just posted something similar. totally agree with you
Steph is an underrated screener lol. Even getting better every year
They won’t have that luxury when Klay is on the court too
the thumbnail is gold
Warriors won that DLO trade for Wiggins. Plus they got the Wolves draft pick. Belly was a great addition too.
Defense too. Rotations are so great, No. 1 defensive rating currently
Yep they just hopped over Miami for #1 ranked defense in the league!
Let's just say there is something rotating in my pants right now
GSW is the best coached team for the past few years. It must suck to play against them as you have to run SO much and being screened all the time.
The Warriors is the opposite of the Celtics right now, honestly. Beautiful ball and player movement.
u wrong opposite of bulls...this two legendary team had a longest win streak...now theyre meet in final
Some of the most beautiful ball movement and player rotations that I've ever seen.
This video just shows how valuable Draymond green is on offense and defense.
The brotherhood connection with steph and klay.
facts we need to pay that man for his next contract.
I'm usually in the minority when I talk about Draymond being a top 20 player. He's the perfect glue guy. His passing ability and the way anchors a defense would be immensely valuable to any team. Almost like if Simmons played power forward and wasn't expected to score...
Green plays a very high IQ game.
He "told" Wiggs where to go on both screens. Gets zero credit on the stat sheet for both of those plays.
damn, curry sets so many great screens. things you dont see on the statsheet
that's a superstar being a role player, and he's being rewarded with open shots.
EXACTLY !!! When was the last time u saw LBJ...or AD...or Westbrick set a screen ???
That's Steph as a superstar. He doesn't have the ego that would burden his team. Name another superstar that is like that.
Also his off balll movement which easily is best of all time in league history. We just live in a microwave society with young people thinking that best handles, best moves, best shots = Best player in the league *cough *cough Kyrie Irving *cough *cough Kevin Durant *cough *cough James Harden and many more.
@@metahand7188 Tim Duncan was the last I can think of
The crazy part is Klay isn’t even back yet, cant wait to see him back in action
And he doesn't even need to adjust. This kinds of plays are what they have been doing since day 1
Real me either
Imagine one of the best catch and shoot players just getting slotted right into this offense with all the open looks they get
if you watch GSW games often, you can see most of the ball movement and opportunities come from how Curry attracting defender even off ball. But all of these are invisible contributions, that's why Curry is so underrated!!
facts
thats exactly why kd had his most efficient season in his career with curry and the main reason ppl got quiet about wiggins being a bust
"The incredible offense is the Hot woman, walking on by..." 😆
When Steph plays off ball and Draymond doesn’t want any shots it means everyone gets to touch ball more often than other teams and that ball has energy. They always move it and just random movement to make defense make decisions which means possible mistakes
Low post split is so much more interesting and dynamic than just high ball screens over and over. You can tell how much more rewarding and poetic it feels to run. I love Steve Kerr’s offense.
Lamello needs to change those red shoes way to easy to see him casually walking around watching plays on defence lmao
Fun fact, nemanja bjelica can shoot threes too. When wiseman and klay get back look out these guys can dominate. i think they’ll be able to check the egos and light up the nba.
I like thay center for us. I hope they figure out the rotation once wiseman combes back because I think it will be less minutes for bjelica but I'm liking what he is doing when he's on the floor.
I hope when Wiseman comes back he can find a nice role for the team. I remember last year he had sparks here and there but he obviously has a lot of learning to do as he only played 1 year in college. Warriors are already one of the higher turnover teams in the league and Wiseman making more (along with foul trouble) doesn't help much. But if he can learn to limit those then they'll be a deadlier team for sure.
Only 2:30 into the video and this is mind blowing and beautiful! This is what basketball, and team competition, is all about. A group working in unison like a huge body, an organism that can reshape in different forms; just thinking about the amount of mind games that can come from this give me chills, and is an insane thing in and of itself: a group working like a symphony.
And even though i love Luka and Lebron playstyle (and i would probably do something similar if bball was my sport) this is the style that i think is the most interesting and creative.
The Achilles heel of the Warriors will always be turnovers. If they can cut them out, especially the live ball, unforced ones then a deep playoff run is not out of the question
Nah i feel like its health. Warriors will solve the turnovers by the playoffs. Its only like the first 7-8 games of the season. Some players still trying to figure stuff out. I just feel like they just need to not get injured lol. Pray to the basketball gods.
Live ball turnovers have been a part of this team’s identity for a while. It’s a byproduct of having a lot of ball movement. Turnovers are an inevitable outcome just by the statistical probabilities
Hear hear
@@enthusiastofcute I'll rephrase, the careless turnovers where Steph or Draymond fail to inbound the ball properly etc. The other day against the Grizzlies Draymond had an 8 second violation, really??
Even in their dominant seasons turnovers were still an issue.
My fave from this game was 6:05 - Draymond screening two defenders at once. BTW Draymond is such a frickin savant on both ends.
Kerr is a product of the two greatest coach of all time.
factual **
5:40 Larry Bird lol but I get he's retired. Bird and Curry play very similarly of you really think about it and both are the greatest ceiling raiser of all time
There was actually a guy that played the way Curry did in the 80's and 90's people tend to forget. He gave MJ the business and the other teams. His name is Chris Wayne Jackson aka (Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf) for all you young guys that missed the 90's era
@@javierlandaverde4108 Rex Chapman?
Uh larry and curry are not a like.
@@zeroch1ll150 it's okay. I wouldn't expect you to watch dozens of 80s games from start to finish to understand what I'm talking about.
@@generaugustlintag11 Rex Chapman was lowkey ass besides that one game v bulls
I enjoyed this breakdown more than the actual game... wow!
Coach, can u also highlight how the warriors defense is doing. They are currently number 1 defensively right now
They are? the last time I checked they were three
@@captainsimp8864 i read today’s morning, the heat just moved down
Have a look at how their opponents so far stack up compared to a team like the heat. Also it’s been less than 10 games lol.
@Number 1 Facts look up strength of schedule. Heat are at top 5 most difficult while Warriors are middle of the pack. Of course, it’s very wonky at this early stage of the season, but at least my claim is based on data.
@@natec4743 how much do you put into strength of schedule 7 games into the season?? 🤔
I really love how warrios executing their plays. its an art for me.
U gotta really pay attention to understand the warriors offense now imagine guarding it 😂
29 teams in the NBA play individual ball, then you have the Warriors playing team ball with their superstar leading the way by example and unselfishness and not individual stats obsession. That's the secret, 29 teams don't have Steph Curry as their leader
Passing and movement is just glorious to watch.
My Dubs are back!
gonna be time soon for an individual video breakdown of gary payton jr.. his defense, athleticism and rebounding (at 6'3) is going to make a huge difference down the stretch. Having to gameplan for all these guards once klays back is going to be tough. Steph, Klay, Jordan and GPII all bring something different for the opposition. Warriors are for real
Great work; love how the Warriors continue to move the ball and go through various actions even when their initial action is denied, instead of defaulting to iso or pnr like 90% of all other teams.
Would love to see a detailed breakdown on the Miami Heat as well. They move the ball pretty well too.
Honestly, this offense only works because of Curry's gravity and unselfishness. It has a trickle down effect to the rest of the team. Even during the KD years, when Steph was injured, they struggled & had to resort to iso-ball.
Where was this offense when Steph went down in 2020 and D'Angelo was the PG?
Does it make the system any less great because it was designed to take advantage of Steph’s gravity?
You can say that of every system, be it defensive or offensive, if players cannot execute then it wont work, the thing is that warriors don't depend on curry getting 40ppg or getting buckets in isolation to win like 90% of the league does with their stars.
The system was there they were just missing their 2 best players lol
The system benefits MORE when Curry is playing, but I mean what offense DOESN'T revolve around their star player? The difference is the Warriors offense focuses on ball movement as well which provides other players ample opportunities. This Warriors bench isn't the same as the last 2 years where they have struggled. Damion Lee and Jordan Poole are much improved players and will more than likely knock down a layup or 3 now.
I'm impressed with how far Jordan Poole has come. I remember the man would get booed every time he touched the ball his rookie season.
Thank you so much for the past couple weeks I've been seeing the low post split so often so happy you gave it a name for me I didn't know what it was called
that editing/ music, video script of the ending on the last shot was bellissimo. well done, nice touch.
That very first move by Durant in the intro is a great example of why players are so much “better” ball handlers than players in earlier eras. That’s a carry EVERY time back when I played.
Steph is the best player in the World, he has been since 2015. He proves it all the time, the numbers back it up. It's simple.
Arguably yes. Consensus-wise, no.
Nope that was LeBron James
Yup‼️
Arguably , I would pick lebron in 2018 and 2020 but steph is up there . One thing I’m sure of is that Steph is without a doubt the best offensive player ever
@@khalidmoussaouate417 considering how much lebron has been coasting in the regular season for the later parts of his career, i'm not sure about that.
That thumbnail is da real mvp

That might’ve been the craziest line to drop the beat to😂😂another great video coach!
Wish this was a 20min breakdown I could watch the warriors forever🔥
Stephen Curry is top five all time I don’t care what anybody says
Best basketball youtuber
Great update brother
Warriors ball movement was always this good specially their run in 2015 and 2016. It just changed to a more iso focused offense when KD joined them which went well since KD is one of the best offensive players out there.
Intro analogy had me crying haha
The amount of Steph’s screening action is just…crazy man 🔥
Wow, what a breakdown. Amazing
You are getting better and better at inserting your sponsors 😂
Thumbnail is EVERYTHING LOL, great vid coach
I feel like when LeBron, AD and Russ sit down to watch GSW tape Mask off plays in the background but nobody can turn it off.
I love this channel. The background music really sets the tone
Keep the videos coming 💪💪💪
Curry is simply off the ball movement master, i wonder what other superstars do if they got that kind of super tight defence, literally curry only has less than second 'open shot' before the defenders running close the gap, and almost of his shots are always contested.
i think being on gs is really good for wiggins being on the team with smart players like curry and draymond and being coached by curr has really increased his basketball iq
Boss, your analysis is the best!
Great video coach!
Great video! I LOVE the way they move the rock
0:26 what is this analogy😂
Gsw is like the man city of football
Just beautiful to watch
Fire video
That original thumbnail pic meme is a gift that just keeps on giving. LOL!
Cavs offense and defense breakdown would be very interesting- for the games that have all of the starters playing
6:33 "You know who I'm talking about."
I feel like that over-eager kid in school raising his hand begging the teacher to call on me so I can say "Russell Westbrook!"
it's always such a joy to watch beautiful ball movement.
Crisp words coach! Brilliant!
Watching this while waiting for the Boston v Miami game, can't waitt
Basically kerr is still running a not so obvious triangle inspired by phil and pop
With the way things are going right now, there's a really, really great chance we get a Bulls - Warriors NBA finals this year. That's even better than a potential finals rematch between the Bucks & Suns. The Bulls & Warriors match up against one another very well. Lonzo, Caruso, Demar, Pat Will, & Vuc vs Steph, Klay, Wiggins, Draymond & Wiseman. Billy Donovan vs Steve Kerr. Steve Kerr playing against the team he won championships w/ as player this year? Dear god in heaven, please make it happen!!
And they’re missing Klay Thompson lol
More of these type of videos pls! (Team plays, positive examples)
Hi coach can you do a deep dive on Damian Lillard's shooting struggles? Much love to you and yours!
They are saying the new balls are the blame, spading is no more nba s balls.
Nahh it's obviously the rules. He can't rest much or get freethrows cuz of the rule change. When he played the olympics he was constantly fishing for fouls.
Wilson Ball is legit struggle. It makes a HUGE DIFFERENCE. Those ball are stiff af and when they get wet from sweat they become slippery. Bad choice NBA not going with Spalding this season.
would definitely be interested in this
#DubsNation #WARRIORS #Forever 💪🏾👌🏾🤙🏾😈
That game was LIT 🔥
The thumbnail has me dead 😂😂😂
The thing about curry and screening is not only is he a very willing screener, he also sets very good screens. Players like KD, Davis, LeBron, they "screen" but they really just slip well before there's any contact and no one gets open. Curry really puts his body on the line and gets a piece of the defender, and the offence is all the better for it
One of your best videos imo
Just found this channel. Learned more from this one video than anything ESPN's "analysis" has ever put out
The intro to end all intros 😂😂
The thing I like about the Warriors' offense is that they really have to keep the defense engaged and moving in circles. Gotta love what Kerr is imposing on his team.
Edit: Plus, when Kerr's playbook need role players to think and not just move. Every IQ counts in his book.
I've been waiting for a warriors breakdown since the start of the season

Love to see the unselfishness in the Warriors offense. So much fun to watch. They’ve been playing some great defense as well.
Golden State is going back to its roots from before the dynasty. Three words, *STRENGTH IN NUMBERS*
I honestly thought Charlotte made a good effort on defense, got a lot of steals, was a close game, but not much of their bench entered the game, helping the deep Dubs break out in 4th.
I really like this version of the Warriors, clearly emphasizing 3-point shooting, movement, screens & defense. J Poole is kind of a wild player, out of control at points, but has both a long-range shot and a really quick first step...If Wiseman can do Big Man things and Klay can make it back for the playoffs this is a really loaded team.
The thing I love the most aboutt the Warriors offense is the fact, that everyone really enjoys getting involved so much. I like to think that them enjoying playing with each other also fuels their motivation to play good defense.
I love this team because they not only play in established roles, but play unselfishly doing so. They know eachother really well and they know their sets too but most of all I love their retention rate in their players, since they keep the same core it's easy to bring in and incorporate new players.
Constant player and ball movement, love it
Steph is still low key underrated. Everyone knows his shooting but because of it, so many people including analyst don’t see how good he is at finishing, passing, and knowledge on the floor. IMO he’s also a really underrated team defender, able to read quickly resulting in some steals and stops. No one mentions how good he is at setting screen (except for this channel and a few others). As mentioned in the video, he’s the best screener among superstars and provides so much scoring opportunities to his teammates without having to touch the ball.
He’s one of those few players in history who you would call a basketball genius. The world hasn’t fully caught up to his innovation et
