Actually, Fox is questionable to play well on today’s game due to his hand injury yet he still manage to show some explosive performance that makes Kings to get an early advantage. What I notice Kings was they always out of gas on the 2nd half perhaps due to exhaustion. They doesn’t have enough of good bench players to do a rotation play unlike Warriors that have Poole and GP2 that they can rely on that always give an extra effort in both offense and defense.
I think GP2 deserves a credit too because he play a lot of defensive and offensive play that keeps GSW maintain their lead in the last quarter of the game. Kings momentum is already there when GP2 started annoys them.
I notice that too, the rotations of players are not the same,
with GSW, they can change players using the same playing strategy and the outcome is almost the same,
players are competitive once being deployed.
With Kings, the rotations changes when role players are being added and with that the offensive side is being compromised.
Chances for GSW to finish the series in game 6 is are high as knowing them played in front of their home crowd.
Steve Kerr is genius for developing players that can relieve star players. You will notice that Curry and Thompson can rest while the bench players can maintain same game ball movement in the floor. Looney is so dominating on Rebound that gives GSW a lot of second chance points.
Kings should train Monk and Mitchell because both players has an expiration for being effective. Monk and Barnes try to do a miracle performance but they are already exhausted and can’t answer anymore GSW aggressiveness on the final minutes of the game. I remember the very same scenario when GSW fight Mavs on WCF and Boston on finals. Both Mavs and Boston that time has a very solid early start but they always out of gas on 2nd half while GSW players still can play like the first half because they regularly having a rest.
