Holiday on Curry is a great defensive match up. He's one of the best defensive point guards in the league.
Problem with Pelicans they don't have any outside shooting, and I don't think they can literally slow the pace down enough - to make it interesting... Which would be their only chance.
They don't have that kind of smothering defense. And they certainly don't have the shooting to play at GS's pace.
I think GS would smash them to pieces.
I don't think you could get away with having Rondo or Holiday on Klay Thompson. He'd be such a mismatch against them.

saw an interesting take on LBJ's future...Cowherd or Broussard...these other teams are getting to the point where they don't need a soon to be 34 year old LBJ to win and achieve greatness. He means everything to this region outside of bball...he doesnt have the sam meaning to other cities...just an interesting view point i thught

Probably when he's played according to his abilities like they are and not the coach's fantasies.

I imagine he'll come off the bench though I'm sure there will be some lineups where all 3 play.

He wasn't too bad at SF in Chicago, as long as he wasn't defending a LeBron or KD.

Meh, hes getting quite the looks in the post. Mostly in game 2 vs game 1.
He had a shot like this in game 1 but it was undershot.
Cavs try to go to him at times, they just don't force feed him.

Yeah, he has had some good looks from three. Don't know why he's clanking those.
