Warriors' Secret 1-3-1 Zone is Breaking NBA Offenses (Film Study)

I love how Kerr and Jerry Stackhouse are making teams think twice with this 1-3-1 zone. The genius is using two guards at the X1 and X5 spots instead of the traditional big man at the nail. Watch how Curry and Podziemski interchange seamlessly - when the ball swings, they rotate positions while maintaining perfect spacing.⁣ ⁣ What really catches my eye is how they can shape-shift mid-possession. Start as a 1-3-1, then flatten to a 2-3 when needed. The Thunder tried attacking the seam between guard and forward - the zone's most vulnerable spot - but Jackson-Davis got over for a great contest.⁣ ⁣ This isn't your seventh-grade zone defense. It's forcing NBA teams to completely rethink their attack strategies.
