Went to this game here in Toronto. Kuminga’s athleticism is unreal to see in real, he takes off man. Another thing to mention is that Klay’s body language is way worse after misses and fouls than we get to see on TV, he’s just hung up on those and he just drags himself around the court like a 5 year old. Nonetheless, I’m glad I got to see the Big 3, who knows, probably for the last time with this Klay-Lacob situation. They NEVER play in Toronto as for some reason it’s always a back-to-back here.

Was good seeing Kerr show emotion in the timeout, but I swear if Draymond just attempted to be a threat, the lob would be open. Finally good to see those Steph-Kuminga PNRs and TJD without Dario. Hope to see Moody still getting decent minutes with Wiggs coming back, like others have said and you, maybe Podz minutes need to be cut back a bit for that. Appreciate the work

Appreciate your work Alch. Living in Aus, a lot of these games are happening during work hours so I cannot get the games, and watching plain highlights doesn't allow you to grasp context and details. You provide a great balance and allow me to follow the season. The most painful times were those injury seasons with bridge troll wannamaker, but I stayed subbed to follow along despite the shitty basketball. Made that championship in 2022 even sweeter though

Very impressive win last night considering the circumstances. 8th straight road win and 6th straight against Eastern Conference opponents. This maybe a little shocking but we are currently 16-6 against the east. Last year, we were 14-16 against the east so that's a huge improvement.

I think it’s likely an alcohol/substance abuse issue as was speculated on the Gilbert Arenas podcast. It makes the most sense. Shit starts going good for him and then wham, he’s gone. Just like an addict to relapse when things start turning around for you. Also, his dad had these same issues and it’s a family disease

I agree. It's not the worst thing but we need every game left. We need to look at every game as a needed win. Just tough being in that 10th spot

I think Kerr knocking him to the second team was an attempt at slowing his chucking down. Will it work? Not yet it hasn't. I think Klay thinks - I am therefore I chuck..

I think I read the lips of the ref on that side, he said I was blocked and couldn't see it. When you watch the tape you can see the ref straining to see. Still he should have called it anyway.

I wouldn't hate it if they rest Steph and another player that needs it for Boston. One more game off for Podz maybe?

Went to a Raptors game 2 weeks ago. Scottie is for sure a nice young player on the rise. Too bad to see him hurt, but hey it happens. Steph is questionable for tomorrow with that knee you pointed out, but I think he plays. Good W.

I am not sure as well. We Probably need to rely more on the young guns but it is a year to early. Next year will be the chance if the young guys make enough leaps and if Kerr allows TJD to get more minutes with he tries to implement right now.

I am thinking mental health/depression as well. And it would make sense. The problem with Wiggs all over the years was always energy and effort. That was the lone reason why the warriors could acquire him. For some reason, he upped his level in the 22 season but I think it was never sustainable. However, the warriors have way higher expectations than the borderline playoff team timberwolves. And if there is pressure to play harder or perform over a level a particular person can sustain, that can mess with someone. It will probably will take longer. Hopefully wiggs can recover.
But on a side note it is redemption arc for moody. And it feels good. He deserves it. And maybe there is a chance that he stays in the starting line up when Wiggs comes back.

Noticed JK is righthanded but struggles to finish on the right side of the rim - even layups. I find it interesting. It's normally the other way around

I'm not sure if this team has enough talent to truly contend this year. However this win here was truly gutsy and I can get behind a team that plays as hard as they are at this time.

I totally feel you and I hope you know I'm equally frustrated. Something is happening underneath the surface. He is way overdue for a monster game.
The boys over at the Athletic could say Klay isn't living up to his potential, he's way overpaid for the output (but so is Poole!) , he's out of shape, injuries are catching up, shot selection sucks, ripped too many bong hits, etc.
I hope he gets cooking. I personally felt like the first quarter in NYC there was chum in the water. Klay and Steph had crazy in their eyes and step in order to catch fire earlyListening to Fitz and Kelena, you'd think nothing is wrong with the team.
My opinion; it all starts with Kerr. Call in a psychologist, Jackie Moon or something.
Keep up the great work. This is the best warriors content on YT and Patreon.

In my humble opinion Moody's ceiling is a 3 & D role player. Kuminga has all star/star potential. Your not contending if that's who your depending on. I do hope Moody proves me wrong and becomes more then that.
Christian Hollaway
2024-03-02 20:42:40 +0000 UTC
to be fair Klay is his fav player on the warriors. he's been more mean to everyone and i think it's cuz of klay's decline

2024-03-02 20:42:08 +0000 UTC
I'm not a big fan of harping on shot selection (unless its out of charachter for sid player) however it's hard to argue against Klay's shot selection last night.
Christian Hollaway
2024-03-02 20:35:38 +0000 UTC
Alch think this is GAME 5 with the Klay is a "SELFISH ASSHOLE" in a breakdown or am I short in my count. More important Question is there anything we can do other than live with it?
Anthony Berry
2024-03-02 20:32:06 +0000 UTC
Yea, that’s probably the realistic approach. You could def debate them being on the same level or better than the bulls duo tho by next season.
Swole Mole
2024-03-02 20:28:37 +0000 UTC
They are a step below that. Maybe like Derozan and Caruso - obv different games tho

Like what in the honest fuck could it be. I can only assume clinical depression - or other mental health. Whatever the rumors were last year can’t be repeated this year. So it’s him. But you can’t be mad at it. I went back and watched Alc’s breakdowns from the ‘22 run. Look at the way he erases Doncic. Even one year of that from Wiggs is worth it. Like paying Klay for the years his knee and Achilles went. Pay da man hiz maney

Moody made leaps…defensively and offensively…he’s more decisive….people are too quick to trash kerr…he’s giving those youngsters the time to reevaluate their game…the results are part of the process….kuminga is playing hard every minute of every game too…

No doubt I’m in my feelings, he has been my favorite Warrior it so it super frustrating to see him like this.
He says the right things and then quickly slips back into everything being about him out there.

CP3 is shooting way better than before injury now. If that is the case, our best 5 will be Curry CP3 JK Wiggins Dray. The second unit will be Pod GP Klay Moody TDJ.
Natto Santo
2024-03-02 19:46:17 +0000 UTC
Kuminga always gets up for these games against guys in his draft class and I love it. Part of the frustration of him not getting playing time is ppl hyping up everyone else like Scottie Mobley and Wagner, but we all knew JK was right there with them.
Also I have to say I see the vision in keeping CP3 around. I feel better with our bench against other benches opposed to our starters against other starters a lot.
Can’t wait for the home stretch to feature 35 mins of Kuminga, 25 mins of Moody, and 20 mins of TJD with no Dario and Loon mins

This comment is not a knock to Al's commentary, but the overall media narrative about Klay is a little heavy handed and dude is under a microscope. comment: Klay's an A-hole for taking bad shots, but Draymond is not for making bad/obvious/picked off passes to Curry the past two games?
Let Klay get his contract re-signed and allow him to settle back in to 40% shooting.
Otherness:
-Dario is a flat out dud. We need offense and defense. Not whatever the hell this guy brings.
-Moody looked good.
-Kerr timeouts and yelling is obviously needed. The soft hands approach has not worked since Poole got punched.
-Olynik looked good (trade for Wigs please).
-Any big that can get us 10 rebounds a night please. (Giannis 46+16 last night.)

This started off looking like it was going to be a shitshow, but turned out to be one of the better wins of the season -- even though Barnes' injury definitely helped us no doubt about it. I can't help but feel they should have cut back Podz minutes before now to keep him from getting issues, he was definitely being overused. But damn if Congo Kobe's dunks didn't make my beard a little thicker!

Progress, no Saric no catastrophic momentum swing, maybe gui could see some of that excess after recovery, if they could ban CP3 and Looney from those short corner close outs somehow that’s another improvement
