3 adjustments the Warriors can make for Game 4 vs. Rockets

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - APRIL 26: Stephen Curry #30 and Kevin Durant #35 of the Golden State Warriors react as they leave the game late in the fourth quarter with a lead in a 129-110 win over the LA Clippers during Game Six of Round One of the 2019 NBA Playoffs at Staples Center on April 26, 2019 in Los Angeles, California.

More Kevin Durant

Kevin Durant has been a monster so far this postseason averaging 35.6 points per game and Game 3 against the Rockets was another successful night at the office for the reigning NBA Finals MVP.

Durant scored in every way he wanted. He torched the Rockets from mid-range, nailed six of his ten three-point attempts, and was a perfect 12-for-12 from the free throw line.

The All-Star forward was the most reliable source of offense in Game 3, but for some reason, the Warriors went away from Durant in overtime. Durant only attempted a mere two shots in the extra quarter, which is unacceptable.

The Rockets have managed to stifle Klay Thompson, Curry has been hampered with constant foul trouble so Durant has been the most consistent offensive threat. The Warriors run a motion-based offense that relies on smart passing, but by this point in the series, the Rockets can snuff out those reads.

It may not be pretty, but the Warriors might need to scrap some of their movement offense and just let Durant go to work.
