Why was Buddy on the floor at all if you want the team to make good decisions with the ball? Pat Spencer would have been a better choice, in my view.

Point Gawd

Is he a Kerr player now? Especially at his salary?

Irritated Inanimate

If we lose today I’m not watching any more games this year

Static2Fresh

That's crazy talk! What year is it!

Mike Peterson

“Play a lineup that features 2G 2F C” made me lol

Ejikeme Uzoigwe

It is absolutely not Steve's fault that we've had so many injuries, but he does have SOME responsibility for our draft misses and the failure to properly utilize effective lineups and what we have. I withheld judgment on him for a long time because I really like Steve personally. But it's become just clearer and clearer that he looks lost and doesn't seem to understand what works and what doesn't in the modern NBA. Also looks like he's lost his passion and drive.

Neal X

I'm withholding judgement until after the trade deadline. I'm taking the comments as part of the negotiations. We know buddy is a disaster but others not looking closely will see he shoots 38% playing 34 minutes a game

Coffeestains

Those last comments acknowledging how bad this season has been are funny as hell. We got you man--not watching every game this season, but we're locked in on the commentary.

Lenny

Kerr’s hittin’ all the high notes!

Irritated Inanimate

Great objective points. I concur.

FRE FLO DO .

Coaches can’t make shots, play D, limit turnovers, take fewer contested tough shots early in the shot clock…. But they can fuel entertaining video rants! Sit 8-12mil players for minimum catz? But still try to trade them in a tough market watching this roster underperform?

Chip Tingle

At least we have this!

MarieMarie Bekele

Alch what do you say to a livestream with questions so we can all vent? Haha.

Neal X

I've also hit the tipping point with Kerr, I really didn't want to get to that point but it really does feel like he has no clue wtf he is doing out there, and it's like he's lost his passion. This is the guy who used to yell and break clipboards when guys didn't follow his plays, or get ejected for bad calls on his guys, the man who didn't back down from MJ. What happened to that man? Where's his fight? If he's gone, it's time to hang it up.

Neal X

"Any professional coach takes this dynasty to several rings." No

Theodor Wiesengrund

this was easily the most entertaining breakdown of the year. fucking hilarious. thanks for making this shit fun.

Rollin Leonard

Is it better or worse than when Fitz decides to talk about something completely unrelated to basketball because it’s all so awful?

Irritated Inanimate

Who should get the opportunity instead?

Irritated Inanimate

History says Buddy will turn the corner soon, but Kerr’s coaching of the team overall means a less than ideal environment for Buddy to pull it out like he usually does.

Irritated Inanimate

lmao right

yan't get right

So if they're serious about that whole mortgage thing that means they don't have time to FAFO. Which means: No more lengthy insane minutes for Buddy. Right now they're not scoring enough to build a cushion and no stops and that result in them scrambling in the 4th quarter. Obviously more minutes for those impactful guys we saw in these last few games. Stop the weird decisions and over thinking — both coaches and players. Alc's videos highlighted so many of them.

Bailey

Do you think Kerr is doubling down on Buddy because of the larger context that led to Klay exiting last year? If he doesn’t play Buddy now, it’d be admitting benching Klay last year was a mistake.

Apple

I plan to keep my Patreon membership for the rest of my life idc how bad the warriors get these videos have been a highlight of my day for years

Michael Cruz-Pizarro

That's why I like Podz.

Neal X

Alc I hear you about Buddy and there is much merit to the frustration but I ask is Kerr truly using Buddy appropriately. You ask why Kerr has so much confidence in Buddy? I put it to you, 1. Buddy is a career high volume high output 3pt shooter, Over the past five NBA seasons, Buddy has led the league in three-pointers made, totaling 1,322. That's hard ound ignore. 2. Buddy is an ideal profile for Kerr. A high volume 3s shoter with a high reving motor always on a full tank. The question for me is not Buddy or other players mistakes as we tend to like to focus but when will Kerr bench himself for a few games and let Terry and Stack do their thin But when you heard Steph talking about punting on the season, either Lacomb send the memo or Kerr las lost his locker room. I dont believe all these professionals can play so bad for so long after showing they could play so great on their own according. Yiu can continue to baskh the players but I am convinced it's Kerr or the Memo. Kerr knows he is the challenge why Buddy and the other players are not performing and it's either because Steve is stubborn or Lacomb gave him the word. I watched Buddy after a full practice in our rickety national gym (Bahamas) shoot 100 str8 barely touch the net 3 pters while moving around. These are machines if you don't frig with their heads. So why you ask. I will put my money on him no matter how dumb he may look to some. some. Tell Kerr to sit small if you have their ear.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I'd say this is definitely the lowest point since the core three started their rise with Mark Jackson. This is the first down year that cant be attributed to injury (klay, stephs broken hand), or bad chemistry (jp and dray). This year its the sad reality that Steph is naturally declining, in that he cant sustain his usual scoring excellence and his decision making, especially in late game situations is getting worse. As Ive stated before, Dray just aint worth the baggage anymore, but I have a hard time thinking of who would want him and his three year deal with the aforementioned bags. Kerr looks increasingly shellshocked loss by loss and is starting to age like an avocado. I wouldnt be surprised if we start seeing him with food stains on his warmup jacket and tufts of hair sticking out of his ears. But there is much more at stake than just a losing season. The warriors and SC30 are a huge global brand, and if they wallow in mediocrity for the next few years they will both take a serious hit. Steph sounds admirably noble talking about "Not being reckless" with trades but I think there is a bit of a smokescreen at play. Does he really want to compromise the "Curry" brand? The legions of preteens begging their parents for that 100 dollar number 30 jersey? The sales metrics on the Curry 13? The next athleisure line opening at an under armour outlet near you? I dont think so. Moves wlll be made. When Kent Bazemore was traded back in 2014, Steph was pissed and he yelled "Its a business!" during a Bob Myers press conference. He knows whats up.

Michael E

If I were GM.... 1. Trade Draymond 2. Ask Kerr to step aside for personal reasons and replace with Mike Brown, stack or stotz or all 3 3. Ask Steph point blank if he wants to be around for next 3 year or if he wants to ring chase 4. Trade off buddy, moody, gp2, Dennis 5. Sign JK 6. Give Quentin post some run 7. Play a lineup that features 2G 2F 1C 8. Build a new identity around the team in last half of season around defense first and taking care of ball

Joshua Davis

I can't imagine Draymond getting traded, but if it does happen, my faith in humanity will be restored.

Michael Silberg

You calling him Moses Booty? Lol it does seem to fit him at this point. Some people used to say he was Klay replacement. I remember in one of your videos years back you questioned if he was even an NBA player. I do believe you right now could give us Moody’s production. They need to trade him asap. His defense is Poole’s level

Kd127

I agree with you with Steph being the most careless star player in the clutch. And remember Draymond is the second most careless too. Then now we got Buddy Hield who is just so stupid with the ball. Now we have a TO disaster scenario. Watching them playing together, I feel like I will have heart attack at any given moment and my head exploded. Anyway, Kerr and FO is now throwing the season away. If so, just play the young guys and let Chef com off bench like Reggie Miller did in his last two seasons

Natto Santo

Appreciate the breakdowns as always Alc. I've honestly checked out the last couple of weeks from watching Dubs basketball. It just feels like a re-run of last season (minus Klay) where it's either a blowout loss, a crunch loss or a crunch time win. I'm just tired of watching them making the same mistakes over and over again. Until they make some moves, they're stuck in mediocrity.

Nick Elliston

im so tired of 4 guard lineups.

Trice

Who would take that garbage trade?

Ash

Nothing I hate more than listening to Bob being positive when we look awful out there. “Stop, Score, Stop” 🙄

Ash

Kerr’s contract ends after next season. Let’s all just enjoy stale basketball for the next season and a half

Ash

Kuminga sitting at home like, y'all better run me the max. I'm the only hope left 😆

Sensible Gooner

That was fun, like the sauce. Keep them real like that

boca

moodys defense is currently worse than pooles ever was lol

Dami I

Thoughts on this trade: Warriors: Lavine Olynyk Bulls: Dray Schroeder Buddy Raptors: GP2 Josh Giddy

Ben D

Time to blow it up. Kerr gone, Draymond gone, and if Curry doesn't want to stick around I get it. This is starting to look like Chris Cohan times again.

Derrick Maples

I get your sentiments but buddy has had over a month of consistent minutes to figure it out. He’s killing the team rn, and at the end of the day you have to perform, it you can’t do that, somebody else should be getting the opportunity

Alaase Shambe

Agreed. The defense is egregious too.

Crimson

Tx Alch! The Kerr hate is pretty weak tho. He has 1 player that’s inside the top 60 players in the NBA and currently has so few players available that he’s forced to play Moody and Gui. TJD is a 3rd choice undersized big, Schoder is a backup PG, Moody does not look like an NBA player. Steve draws up a play for Steph, and Buddy shoots anyway, but of course it’s Kerr’s fault for not coaching Buddy the right way? I don’t want to see Buddy play, let alone start, but again what should Kerr do? Tell the media that he’s lost faith in Buddy, and won’t play him in the future? Moody is somehow worse anyway!! Kerr started small, some fans might not have liked it but if he had started KA (I love him) and TJD then there would be zero shooting and still not enough size but those fans would be slamming Kerr anyway - he’s damned either way because of the construction of the roster yet I still have confidence in Mike. Let’s be honest, the only way back to contention, and the only way to justify trading all available picks, is probably Giannis in the summer (or the lottery). Maybe being bad now will be to our advantage in the offseason!

Stephen Jones

Seeing Barrett next to TJD just makes me sad. We are small as hell lmao. Always appreciate the breakdowns Unc, these games are so fkn hard to watch live sometimes with these brain dead buddy sets.

Keith Waters

Alch. You gotta stop giving Looney a pass. He's below the standard that we need. I really belive that he's taking up precious roster space. And you got to be just as patient with TJD as we ALL have been with Looney. TJD needs minutes in order to get better. Every time Loon gets a bunch of minutes, it's a wrap--we gonna lose. He does not add to the offense.... He's mediocre at best at the one position we truly need contribution and presence from.

k. marcelous

I don’t think so, he’s pretty far seeing, that’s why he’s still determined to do his best even if he’s not getting any help and the environment sucks

Irritated Inanimate

Fingers crossed. I hope they are supporting Lindy in the same way

Irritated Inanimate

Which is what Kerr says he wants in a player!

Irritated Inanimate

I've been calling him that for the last few weeks myself, glad Alch finally admitted he is too XD

Neal X

Correlation, not causation

Irritated Inanimate

Kerr finally gets a guy for his system and doesn't use him.

John Z

I listed one combination of players that could get him + plus more. Last year we could of got him with CP3 contract as a starting point. The Bulls asked us and we declined. They did mainly because of his injury and he's not a "Kerr player". All I know is the guy can score, playmake and tools to defend better than the other options

Chaz G

Booty on the brain? Not just dick jokes around here. 😆Never going to not watch you, Alch, team hasn’t been entertaining in a while, but I’m still here! The real problem is nobody on the team except for Moses, Buddy, and Slo Mo are confident enough to shoot, even when they miss. It’s so weird to have a team full of players who DON’T want the ball. They are moving the ball to get rid of it, not to find the open man. That’s straight up playing under pressure with fear, that is not a motion offense. This team doesn’t run a motion offense unless Kuminga, Steph, or Podz forces it. Bad player fundamentals, I don’t care if Kerr thinks it’s beneath him to actually look at how his team is shooting lay ups and free throws or doing block outs or rebounds or screens, the players are so bad at these things that it’s affecting the team play, which is why they get into trouble when the overhelp defensively. If Kerr doesn’t show how much he cares about these things, then why would I expect the players to understand. Especially these players! They all think that someone else is going to do it (whatever “it” is), so they don’t have to. I don’t mind the long leash for Buddy, we all agree Kerr sucks when he doesn’t give the players run, Buddy getting more run is a good thing. It’s funny because Kerr is probably in pain watching certain players, so he doesn’t play them, but then other players perform equally painful plays and somehow that’s a problem? Can’t wait for injured players to come back. I want to see that running game again where Kerr does hockey substitutions and makes everyone run until they can’t anymore. Schröder might resist, but put him with Podz because Podz doesn’t give a fuck, he’s running! Put Trayce back in the G league and see if he actually plays better down there. If it’s exactly the same as what he’s giving us now, then you should just leave him there and start Slo Mo or Looney instead. Move Nick Kerr up to help coach this team, at least he is coaching for the entire team, not an individual. I’m actually starting to wonder if Kerr Sr. is afraid to hurt Steph by coaching a different way, might have been why Tatum was sacrificed on Team USA over the summer too. If he can’t bring himself to do it, he needs to step aside.

Irritated Inanimate

Which in and of itself is a situational awareness issue

Sarcasm 360

It also doesn’t help that Steve has Buddy, Steph and Dennis on the court against 4 6’6+ players and a big.

Kahlil Baker

Your breakdowns get better as the season gets worse.

Gary

now you see what we have been saying about kerr. damn man. i am so f,ing sick of this. this really hurts man, really hurts. i love this team so much, i don't know

paul reboca sr

Yes, it’s time

Irritated Inanimate

No other words for it at this point

Irritated Inanimate

Moody probably doesn’t even like basketball anymore, he’s been thoroughly ruined it’s too late

Sarcasm 360

This season is an abject failure so far. The defense is hanging on by a thread with these bad decision makers and tiny players, the stated goal by Steve was to be a great three point shooting team. we just suck at everything we set out to be good at

Rory Noone

This is a good point, Schröder kicked his ass in FIBA last year. Signs are all around, just have to read them

Irritated Inanimate

Two high on Barnes but dude is 6’9 looking right over your midget lineup, I didn’t watch this game and that is why, this team has been coached into their situational awareness issues

Sarcasm 360

That exact attitude is why I don’t think they can trade Podz. Because he gives you that every game all game long. He’s still trying to steal the ball in that final seconds of the game where everyone agrees not to play anymore, he wants it so bad that he can’t help himself. Hilarious!

Irritated Inanimate

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is seeing the small things that he is doing/working on which could conceivably pull him out of the hole. Also, in reference to what Alch said about Steph constantly looking for Buddy, & Coach Kerr being so patient with him... I think it's a shooter's fraternity. They know what droughts can be like more than most, & Buddy in his true form is a fking sniper. I believe that's the reason for the long leash being extended to him. He'll be back, hopefully, sooner than later.

FRE FLO DO .

You bring up a good point. I have League Pass, I don’t need to watch them lose in real time for $80/month.

Irritated Inanimate

Amen, brother! Alch's breakdowns are the one thing I will never do without.

Thomas Ogas

Kerr can’t do nothin right!

Irritated Inanimate

My understanding was that they should have gotten Lavine before the contract extension, but now he’s too expensive and the ROÍ isn’t worth it

Irritated Inanimate

What does buddy need to do to redeem himself from here on out? 50% the rest of the way? I don’t think he’s redeemable now Bruh is a hard watch Get him off my team

Ben D

I would be surprised if anyone at all here would think slo-mo shouldn't get more minutes, at least he plays smart and professionally and on both ends.

Steven Stanley

When the Dubs don't bring it, Alch bring EXTRA sauce in the breakdowns! Loved this one!

Thomas Ogas

Can’t put it past Moody, he’s wise for a young player

Irritated Inanimate

Kelena just needs to accept Fitz does a lot of things for entertainment and for the love of the team and he gets more defensive of the team the worse they do. It’s not that serious Kelena!

Irritated Inanimate

I don’t know why Kerr doesn’t take the opportunity to use the younger players when the team has so many people out with injury. Ready made excuse! Can’t be worse, and if it is, you’re covered

Irritated Inanimate

Facts lol, plus I just feel like bob can have that “Joe Lacob mode” where he gets real complacent with how bad we look and makes a lot of excuses and Kelenna just doesn’t do that, you can tell he wants to call a spade a spade most of the time lol

Michael kaiser

Minority view, but it’s kinda gangsta that role player Steve Kerr swung on the most popular player in the world (who also had like four inches on him) because he decided MJ was getting a bit too mouthy lol

Ejikeme Uzoigwe

I agree, I see Buddy pouring himself into his defense and it’s starting to improve his offense. He does need more time, but I have no idea how long it will take for him to definitely turn it around

Irritated Inanimate

Kelenna, unlike Jim Barnett, is a relatively "recent" player. So Kelenna is a lot more in-tune with how things really are on the court in today's NBA. Bob talks exactly like who he is: an unathletic white dude who's understanding of the game comes only from ever WATCHING. Bob definitely knows ball, dont get me wrong. But he'll never understand it like Kelenna or Jim. They both played so they know. But Jim hasn't played for decades and Kelenna is young enough to have played with Steph. Because its his job, Kelenna will never outright shoot down Bob or anything. But Kelenna definitely does get annoyed when Bob says shit like "Yeah these dudes might suck on paper but theyre good in real life!"

Jansen E

Damn Alch! "Too dumb to lose his confidence"? Savage! That aside, for some reason I haven't given up on Buddy. Perhaps it's because he doesn't mope or hang his head. He's in an extended drought, but he's competing with energy. He's not out there feeling sorry for himself when things don't go his way like past Dubs players whose name I won't mention.

FRE FLO DO .

I just listened to the guys from the Mismatch podcast say the same thing. I think it’s funny how the national media thinks Houston is full of good young players but JK is trash. Not sure how many times he has to single handedly bust their ass to get some respect.

Ejikeme Uzoigwe

This season has sucked, but I don’t care. The only thing that matters in the NBA is having a dude. Over the last few months, I’ve seen enough to convince me that JK might really become a dude. The positive of having a 22-year old dude overwhelms whatever negative is going on.

Ejikeme Uzoigwe

Thanks for watching this garbage and yelling at it for all of us. It just feels like sabotage. You can't justify starting a 3 (4, arguably) guard lineup against a big team, especially when 2 of the guards are in potentially career-ending scoring slumps.

Mike Peterson

Is it just me or the deeper into this season we get the less and less it seems like Kelena likes/agrees with what bob has to say😂 feel like we’ve had at least one moment every game where it’s awkward between those two lol. kelena would probably flourish a bit more as an announcer without bob honestly.

Michael kaiser

If Im Steph and I know its my last game ever, Im telling my teammates. Im putting up 50 shots at least. Idgaf. Gimme the damn ball or Im just gonna come and take it from you. I will hit 70 pts if it kills me hahaha

Jansen E

I know it wont happen. But Im trying to speak it into existence lol. Kerr hates young bigs. It'll never not bother me watching Chris Boucher stunt on us. He's not a 5, but damn we could use someone with his length and shooting. The timelines didnt line up at that point when we had him. But geez.

Jansen E

I was at the game, too! It was a lot of fun.

Point Gawd

Kerr with the Buddy Hield fascination is like 2 years ago when he played Anthony Lamb and Ty Jerome instead of Kuminga and Moody. I think Moody is capable of being a good role player but he's got his 3 year contract and is playing bad in hopes of being traded from this losing Warrior team and the Kerr favoritism.

Evets79

If they didn't do that with Wiseman in a lost year, no chance they'll do that with Post this year. Kerr doesn't yet realize his system will guarantee the team never hits its ceiling, so Kerr's gonna keep penciling in 3 guard line-ups and complaining when JK (but not Buddy) doesn't pass the ball to Steph. No chance Kerr's gonna mess up his plans by playing Post 15 minutes a game to develop for next year. That would be a light years move, and Kerr doesn't even think light seconds ahead.

Point Gawd

Moses Booty 😂😂

Alaase Shambe

I’m not abandoning you Uncle Alch-but this kind of basketball product isn’t worth losing work, sleep, time so forgive me Dub Nation as I might not always watch the car crash that is the current Golden State Warriors. I’d rather watch young talent try hard, learn together, build good habits than watch the Buddy Hield turd basketball show 3 and 4 guard Hobbit Basketball show. I really wonder what it is that the Warriors are afraid of. Be fun to watch!! This is godawful AND boring. The recent Steph and Draymond comments make me feel like they have truly lost whatever hopes they’ve had of competing as they are just content to be a tourist attraction.

Paul Hanson

bingo

yan't get right

😂😂😂 you were in your bag with the moody fetchit voice KLAY TRAUMA was the realest thing you said here, Alc. This org is so broken, and all the Buddy shit is really just another example of trying to replace your ex with some girl who KINDA look like her but you met her at a club. Those first 15 games were 100% a fluke becuase we thought we could quickly get over our breakup, but we still got some deep shit to fix! And I'm not saying Klay would help us right now, but some shit just gotta come to an end. Kerr has been thirsty as fuck for the glory days since '22 and he's never gonna be the same if he doesn't just try something new for once.

yan't get right

Kuminga is injured. But when he gets back, wouldnt it be nice to see him with a stretch big? Pick and pop between those two would be interesting. The problem is Post's defense. He needs to learn. Bring him up and have Loon/Dray/SloMo teach him defense. Whats the point of having Post rot down in the G league against a bunch of scrubs who will never see an NBA game? The season is washed, so give Post minutes to learn defense, while also giving him the green light on offense so he and Kuminga can run wild.

Jansen E

I don't know why LaVine isnt an option. He's the best option out there available, and been saying it since last year. We can still get him and not give up JK/Podz/TJD, so why not?! Hell, we could get LaVine/Craig/Vuevic and not give up our young 3 and probably very lil in draft assets! WHY IS THIS NOT ON THE RADAR!

Chaz G

Don't care what anyone says. Kerr is the biggest problem with this team. No way we should of started Curry/Buddy/Schoder. No way Buddy should of got as many minutes or ended the game. In fact I don't know if Moody is a nba player at this point. I prefer Waters to both of them at this point, at least he can defend and makes good positive plays and hits every now and again. With us having no high talent except Curry we need him to be Superman or excellent coaching to win.

Chaz G

I'm with Alchemy about Kerr's relentless patience with Hield when he never showed that much patience with Kuminga or Moody. They were being benched for Anthony Lamb and Cory Joseph.

Goku44

Someone needs to give Kerr the Jordan Poole treatment a la Draymond Green.

Jansen E

Its just 100% a coaching problem. Either 1) Kerr isnt telling them anything and just giving them that green light or 2) Kerr IS telling them to stop doing that, but they dont respect him or care about him enough to listen. If its 2, then Kerr has lost the locker room. Its not Kerr's fault that Moody and Buddy suck. But it is his fault if he's created an environment that players dont listen to him, or he just that idiotic in giving the thumbs up to Moody and Buddy. 12 foot running off balance floaters? Go ahead Moody!!! Double teamed at the top of the key with 12 on the shot clock? Fire away Buddy!

Jansen E

Im abandoning the season but I’m tuning in the breakdowns, I like the candidness

Allan Preciado

This is all just sad..

Sander Sokk

This season is cooked. But fuck all that Quinton post nonsense. I want to see Kuminga get the ball and be the lead dog. Doesn’t really matter tho, because all we’re getting is 40 more games of this same bs.

Andre Brooks

🤣 I literally put my phone down and started watching the Grizzlies Rockets game as soon as the shot hard bounced off back iron. I had seen that scene too many times and knew that we weren't winning after that crap

Irvin Mugo

If Kerr loves Buddy so much, why doesn't he marry him? Steve has got to go, otherwise nothing will change, I fear.

Sander Sokk

Hoping for a Play-in spot is discussing considering where this season started. I’m hoping for an 11th seed so Alch can cover real teams in the playoffs

Andre Brooks

Seeing Scotty Barnes blow by Moody from a faceup triple threat was my last straw with the guy. If he can’t handle the foot speed of a 4/5 then he can’t play in this league.

Andre Brooks

Now that I have submitted my rant comment, I just would like to say THANK YOU ALCH. You are the only thing keeping me engaged with this season. I checked out of the NFL season when it was clear the Niners were garbage. And now Im just about done with NBA season as well. Youtube TV is raising their prices again in a few days, and Im considering canceling it at least until next NFL season. Ive also been having car troubles and may need to take out a loan for a new car. To save money, Im also canceling a handful of my other subscriptions like Netflix and Max. The reason why I bring all this up is because the single subscription I will never cancel is yours. Your insight, humor, hot takes (and cold ones!), and just keeping it real is worth every penny and Im glad to continue watching every video and listening to every podcast. Im in a tough spot financially right now so I may soon not even have a way to watch any live NBA games. But I'll always be here for your breakdowns. Looking forward to more shit talking when we lose to Minnesota by 35!

Jansen E

I feel you. Not gonna lie I was kind of surprised Alc was ok with Steph taking that shot. Looked like a dumb shot to take, but he gets the pass you're talking about.

Dr. Sanjin

Yea I’m finna just watch the breakdowns😂

Davion Green

I have no time for hanging of heads, mumbling in subdued tones, shuffling of feet, wringing of hands, and self-pity. Even if I don't succeed at something I compete at, I never lose my drive or passion for what I do. I have no tolerance for people who can't maintain that, win or lose, even if it's people I thought I loved and rooted for. This is NOT the way these guys should go out, even if they are going out. This is why MJ and Kobe maintain a special place in people's hearts. Kobe especially, even though he often isn't included in GOAT conversations, he was always giving it all out there. Not being a contender just made him mad and an asshole, and his last years were pretty shambolic too except for that last game, but at least if you cheered for him you knew where he stood: he wanted to fucking play basketball and win. And that's why he went out on the note that he went out on and it was a top 5 NBA moment, maybe even a #1 moment. I wonder how Steph's last game is going to look compared to that...

Neal X

TRADE MOSES BOOTY AND BUDDY “wtf was that shot” HIELD FOR A BIG!!!! 😭

Yungdoms

WHY is Buddy Hield second or even first in the pecking order? Why isn't Wiggins the second option after Steph? Why isn't Kyle Anderson playing 30+ minutes as the only starting power forward we've got? When will we stop with the midget lineups? Kerr was humiliated with those in the FIBA World Cup but he is too stubborn to change. I don't think we will emerge as a good team if Kerr is removed, but at least we won't be a constant scratching head experiment.

Alex Kay

React to Awful Coaching!

Shaun Ting

I don't care if Kerr knows more about basketball in his pinky than I have ever known. Playing Hield at small forward and Wiggins at power forward is absolute nonsense. Kerr acts like he is the smartest guy in the room when he is extremely arrogant and stubborn.

Goku44

Booty! … this game was booty! Thanks for always uplifting the fan base Unc! We need you in times like these!

Chris Thomas

Im at the point where im going to watch the rest of the league until we make a trade!! Kerr all up on Buddy’s dick but will call out JK for taking middies. Come to realize without JK we are a far worse team. I know Post is a rookie but the way TJD looks, im ready to see a Loon and Post rotation and TJD getting 5-10 minutes a game

Kahlil Baker

lmao, Alch definitely pissed in this breakdown. Might be on to something about buddy being too dumb to lose confidence 🤣🤣

AK

Jeopardize what future? Moody, Podz, Kuminga? Trade 'em!

Freddie D

Alch, remember how we (Kerr) said SloMo was gonna share time as a 5 with TJD and Dray lol this organization looks a mess. Inconsistent, rigid in our "adaptations" and direction-less. Hopefully JK returns and we look like a... play-in team

Anthony English

Nope, he said he was alright with Steph taking that tough contested transition 3 when we were down 1 point with over 40 seconds left. That is exactly what's wrong with this team and with Steve and Steph. Steve preaches ball movement, good shot to great shot and murders JK for taking tough contested jumpers. Talks about poor execution in the clutch, but everyone puts up their hands and says, "oh it's Steph, he's allowed to take STUPID, UNREALISTIC, UNNECESSARY, AND ARROGANT SHOTS THAT COST US GAMES!" Because he is Steph...zero accountability on this team, unless it's Kuminga, who can't commit a single turnover without having his minutes cut in quarters and gets put at the top of the trade list.

This has been the weirdest season. The first 10 games they looked like contenders and now they genuinely one of the worst teams in the league lmao. Only roster change since then was swapping melton for Dennis the menace. Sure there’s been some injuries but it’s just fuckin baffling lol

I dont care what anyone says, THIS TEAM is the WORST team in the league right now. It doesnt matter than other teams may have a worse record than us. Our team is the PERFECT combination of being: - Too small - Too old - Too dumb/low IQ - Too unathletic - Too weak - and too goddamn hardheaded to change anything about it. Again. Steve Kerr is not THE problem. He's just one of the many problems, but his total inability to do any sort of coaching is not helping this team. Injuries do make it worse. Losing Kuminga was huge. But honestly I dont think our record is any different even if we have Podz or GP2. Its hard to even root for this team right now. The only reason any of us really want a trade right now is just so its semi interesting for 5 games. Just like with Schroeder. We were all excited about Schroeder coming over. And he just got sucked into the void of emptiness like everyone else on this team. Vucevic wont fix anything. Zion wont fix anything. Valanciunas would be the best signing and he still wouldnt fix anything. We need to get rid of Moody and Buddy. If Kerr isnt going to play to Schroder's strengths, then get rid of him too. We brought in an ultra speedy ballhandling scorer and Kerr just tries to shove him in the same "motion offense" box that he shoves everyone else into. Gee, I wonder whats not working? All I want for the rest of this season is to see 25 mins a game of Quintin Post. Force him to learn how to play some NBA defense. Pack it in, and take our chances next year. This season is over and anyone who disagrees is delusional and coping hard.

They annoying AF either way

Dr. Sanjin

Who the hell do Buddy and Moody think they are? They swear they have the greenest light to take any and every shot. It's hilarious and infuriating to watch dawg lmfao

Crimson

Buddy don’t even really shoot the ball sometimes…he just throws it up towards the basket…sit that 🤡 down

RockP

what happened to these new assistant coaches holding steve accountable ? we need jordan to knock some sense into steve like he did in 95'

Ethan Brosemer

Did he pass?

Dr. Sanjin

I yelled at my husband in the other room, "they have a guy named Dick on their team and you will not guess what number he chose!" lmao like a damn arrow calling it out; i too was looking forward to hearing some mishaps with that name. Sigh, "mid" is too nice of a term....they look like a team who's home game tickets should be half the price of what they are!

Allison Hendrix

what could okc, houston or memphis be willing to give up for steph? doesnt look like they can turn it around, send him to chace nr 5

Andreas Wiedemann

0:20 Alch imitating Fitzgerald’s voice sounds like Azubuike, lol

percussion boy

Didnt even feel mad about this lost, this is a generational bad shooting slump these guys are in and JK was our release valve with his ability to get downhill consistently - no one else does that and defenders can always just play the shot. I cant remember a warriors team this bad finishing around the hoop. Its bad bad

Matt Hanna

Oh wow my power was out so i didn't get to see the last play and im glad I didnt goddamn

MaxShade18

I'd rather watch Curry contend on another team like OKC. They have a lot of assets.

At this point a team of robots could beat the Warriors, just program them with a few simple algorithms: (1) collapse defense with drive, kick out, take three (2) simple pick and roll, make one pass, take three (3) have your actual 4 and 5 positions just muscle their fake 4 and 5 position players out of the way and do whatever you want

Neal X

it's becoming a meme how bad we are..

Maksim Petrushin

So....I'm expecting the blame for this loss to be squarely on one man. So if I get to the of this video and don't hear the blame go to this specific player, I'll have officially lost faith in dubnations basketball IQ.

Irvin Mugo

😂😂😂 good stuff Alc, the humor makes it hurt less

Dr. Sanjin

Alch, you see the quotes that have come out from Kerr, Steph, and Draymond? All three of them basically saying the team not gonna make moves to jeopardize the future in some way. Feels like a Lacob kind of thing, no? This is super discouraging and feels like they all waving the white flag already.

Mitch Coob

My first ever basketball game live. Had a blast watching Curry but for the rest… yikes.

Edgy SC

I don’t know if it’s because we’ve been bad but our announcers have been truly pissing me off this year.

Offtopic K

Deadass feels like the season is over. Being in Aus, I don't get to watch many games live. I caught this one, and boy do I regret it
