Give us the spice

Shachar Sharon

Why was she bood?

Shachar Sharon

Did anyone see the two times Steph got pissed, once on the tipoff when Klay swatted it almost out of bounds and another time when he clapped his hands at Podz for not giving him the ball right away?

Becky Lafrenz

That was just basketball malpractice. The front office should have traded Lamb for a potted plant and forced Kerr to play the kids.

Lee Schumacher

ahh thanks!

Mikey H

Moody has a calf strain.

I'm still convinced this team already has enough talent. And even if that weren't the case, the chances of a trade making us title worthy this year are absolutely zilch. This is about getting healthy, in sync, and Kerr figuring out how to use his players. No coaching experience here, but I humbly opine that Podge is getting far too many minutes (and must jettison that baby-hook atrocity) while JK far too few. Corey Joseph and Jerome should NEVER see the floor (ok, RARELY!) and combinations like JK/Wiggs/Trayce along side Klay and Steph need to get longer looks. That front court does wonders for us on defense, both in the half court as well as on break-outs, and JK and Wiggs can both create their own offense. Did anyone notice how many times Klay found Trayce for open dunks last night? And that Dario/Loon duo? How about more of Dario/Trayce instead? Dario spreads the floor, Trayce provides a roller and some rim protection. Again, the talent is there, the key is going to be Kerr discovering and embracing some new combinations. But regardless of who's on the floor, we've got to get back to basics: without grit and effort we're going nowhere. Go Warriors. Go Alch!

Unfortunately, Steve Kerr does not get the point to develop young guys. If he does not like them, he does not play them. Last year the tried to win a championship but we all knew that’s not going to happen. So Steve Kerr had to play Anthony Lamb over Moody and Kuminga. Still pissed about this decision. Imagine how good Kuminga could be for us this year, if he played more last year because Steve Kerr trusted him - mind blowing.

Jakob

crazy that no Moody mins. tryin to figure out what's up cause he always comes out & looks better than most of the team. could it be they have a trade lined up & dont want him to get hurt? idk

Mikey H

There’s not a lot of precedent for a player of Curry’s size and age playing at that level for much longer. A lot of my frustration with Kerr’s rotations this year and (even worse) last was that they over played the vets at the expense of developing the youth. One thing that I think has been lost about the success of 22 was that they were winning easily in the early season, allowing the vets to be preserved by playing them fewer minutes. And then Steph got hurt towards the end of the season, so when the playoffs came around he was relatively fresh. Kerr need to play Steph and Klay below 30m a game regardless of the record so they can be rested for the playoffs. Moody and Kuminga need to be north of 20m regardless of the record because they need to develop so they can be relied on in the playoffs.

Lee Schumacher

Chicago fans are trash.

Michael Bell

Looney looks like what Dikembe Mutombo would look like today if he suited up for a game.

Dimitrios Cacomanolis

Which means Kerr will play them 48 minutes together v the bucks

Dimitrios Cacomanolis

The part about the Kuminga-DeRozan pump fake battle reminds me of last season (or the season before?) where Kuminga was guarding him, he bit his pump fake and got mad at himself for it, after that, he guarded DeRozan so well for the rest of the game

Nyeooooowmmmm

yeap @ChizzyTheKid

And 8 dimes?!! Dayem

Chip Tingle

Dig!

Chip Tingle

Tonight against a stronger squad, let’s see if they show signs of quitting or lack of real hustle, no matter the score. I’ll accept most any loss if 100% is spent on the floor. Chase crowd most likely, too.

Chip Tingle

This is what I thought the whole game, too, even when Bulls couldn’t miss in 2nd. They were playing hard on both ends, no matter what, and playing for each other (39 assists!). It bounced off the screen, especially Wiggs. I thought Dario got the nod for this reason, too, just always leaves it on the floor. Dunno how to solve the Loon mobility problem, as being forced to constantly cover the arc just isn’t there for him. Only play against trad bigs? But p n r defense has dropped off, too!

Chip Tingle

How our standards have fallen. We're happy when the team just plays hard.. But trying to outscore a team is not a recipe for long term success.

David Y

Garuba died or something? How does he not get a look when we can’t guard our own shadow

Luke Zhang

I love Looney and his entire story, but at this point his salary needs to be thrown into a trade, he is unplayable for us. He could get bought out, and then he can be resigned on a min contract. Hopefully the 3rd center behind Jarret Allen and TJD.

Windfury

It was just nice to watch us play hard again and play some decent basketball (outside of the Loon/Dario minutes)

Abhi Kelkar

You can’t cast from streamable? That’s usually how I do it on my tv

Alex Jenkins

I dont think anyone is looking at as gold.. more of just like ok bout time yall showed some pride, now do it again!

Athletic Alchemy

this win was fools gold, I still think they need to make some big moves.

Adrian

probably the only time he broke a sweat lol

Athletic Alchemy

I dont think anyone is thinking that about 1 game.. do this the entire road trip and that be a real cause for optimism

Athletic Alchemy

Thanks for the 411.

Anthony Berry

Its tough because it does feel like steph could maintain top 10 status for another 2 years maybe, and if that were the case then you got load up for him

Athletic Alchemy

the whole JK wigs thing really was Wigs just not doing anything

Athletic Alchemy

Id be sad to see JK go, but I couldn't be mad at the swing

Athletic Alchemy

fax. the nba is kinda like soccer nowadays. being too big and bulky hurts agility and cardio levels. he's already pretty strong. he needs to lose some weight

ChizzyTheKid

It’s a good win but it is just the Bulls. We bout to get smoked by the Bucks. And what the fuck is Draymond’s deal. What was he doing while suspended? Getting tequila enemas with Bron?

Gary

This was a great team win. Best they’ve played all season. But stop me if you’ve heard this before: “they’re starting to turn it around!!!” I caution everyone to wait to see real change before believing in this team again. I’m not gonna hold my breath. But we’ll see what they look like heading into the all star break. This is a good start though if they really are trying to turn it around.

Jansen E

I don’t know what to make of this team anymore. I hate to see Kuminga go, but if Wiggins is playing like this it seems a lot more defensible to trade JK because he has more trade value than Wiggs at this point. I think Kuminga has a higher ceiling than Wiggins, but not playing for Steve Kerr and not hitting that level in the next season or two that we can expect Curry to carry us through another playoff run.

Lee Schumacher

If Krause were still alive I would have 100% been behind the boo birds. Booing his widow was tacky, but frankly, so was honoring Krause in the first place.

Lee Schumacher

Great game I got nervous at the end but I'm glad we won!

Strong Foru

Looney is just flat out unplayable at this point. And I hate to say that. Maybe if he dropped about 15-20 lbs he'll move and feel better Even at this stage... Klay is still the best microwave in the NBA. As angry as he makes us at times.... bro still got that superpower And its insane how better the team looks with a motivated Wiggins. The floor opens up for Steph and Klay when there are other offensive threats to keep the defense honest.

Ballin Forever

That Dario-looney lineup will get eviscerated against Giannis tonight

Hg80

Draymond's absence -> Steph needing to be more vocal/different leadership Steph embracing being different leader -> Steph playing bad Steph playing bad -> Klay carrying lately (someone has to splash) Klay carrying lately + steph playing bad -> need another Shooter in starting lineup Dario in starting lineup -> Klay looking like MJ Klay looking like MJ + Wiggs Aggression -> TJD/JK room to operate All of the above -> Steph Curry able to FINALLY wait until crunch time to play impactful hero ball Steph letting go of early game hero ball -> -> -> Steph FINALLY believing in a different style of leadership

yan't get right

Lmaoo for real this is what he deserves. I don’t think he was even a positive player in preseason for us. This man averages 35 claps, 4 seat switches, and 6 water bottle passes a game. Man shouldn’t touch the floor in blowouts.

Swole Mole

It's not there fault. They had someone representing other players as well. The crowd was at fault. That wasn't Jerry but his widow. They didn't have to boo, they could have done a polite clap. It's the crowds fault. I mean the bulls expected people to be decent and that's not to much to ask.

Carla Davis

Looney looks atrocious, I'm getting tired of watching him. I know before we all used to joke about he looks like an old playing, well this season he 100% looks like an old man playing. Empty the clip for Lauri and Olenyk and get this show on the road.

Julian

Bulls fans were disgusting, glad we taught them a lesson in basic human desency

Naji Zouhari

Yo that’s his official name now 😂

Athletic Alchemy

2024 CHAMPS BABY (just make the playoffs pretty please 🥺)

yan't get right

Alc with the clutch lunchtime drop!

Ananth Srinivasan

I blame the Bulls for putting Krause’s widow in that position. The bulls fans always hated him (and Reinsdorff). Krause was the hatchet man for Reinsdorff, he didn’t bring anything to the table basketball wise.

Lee Schumacher

I felt like Conor mcgregor “who da fook is that guy” 🤣 watching Wiggins hustle, get chase down blocks, and finish at the rim

Luke Zhang

I vote Wiggins' effort was "NO trade value?! Shit, I want OUT!" Such a bummer because this version of him sees us SO much higher in the standings this year. Even with Loon Dray and early Klay troubles, 17 points vs 3 points from Wiggs would have won us so many games 😭

NN

The JK 3 at 8:42 looked like the 3s Lavine kept knocking down on us

JR

Anyone see that play when Kuminga tossed Drummond under the basket? He's a BEAST.

Vincent Zendejas

JEROME RECTUM ROBINSON!!!! I knew we would see the two-way guys with how depleted the team is rn but to think Kerr trusts Jerome over Lester in this situation is mind-boggling! Finally saw some energy from the team and hope Wiggins can build on this. (Won’t hold my breath tho)

Karleke Dennis

Like you said, this felt like a vintage night, and there's been so much negativity lately I wanted to take a step back and appreciate this while we can still see it. Whatever happens going forward, we all know the Curry era is winding down, so I just want to see them end with dignity like Kerr said recently. This could be some of the last we see the Splash Bros together on a court for all we know. Regardless of what we've said about "blow it up" and all that, we're all going to feel it if the band breaks up.

Neal X

Yeah the game has changed but honestly all it does is focus on certain aspects of the game and ignore others. There’s no surprise that Demar has averaged the most points since he’s joined the bulls even though it seems he’s past his prime. Or that Shai is one of the best scorers in the league while being a below average 3pt shooter. I’d love kuminga to study kobe bryant because he’s one of the few young guys that I believe could be closer to him on both sides of the court or Kawhi if people are scared of a kobe comparison

Offtopic K

As much as people say the players have to take some credit on how bad they are looking. Like you alluded towards in this video, Steve’s line up choices have been bad! Loon is getting cooked every night. They play these teams like the Pistons with big guards and Steve runs a 3 small guard line up against them. Then they play athletic quick bigs and Steve has Looney out there stumbling back and forth down the court. He’s not putting these guys in the right line ups to win games

Kahlil Baker

Vucevic, worst defender in the league. Williams, worse than Wiseman. Levine, not a difference maker. Derozan, nice.

SAOpp

It would hurt to see wiggs go. So nice to see him have a very impactful game

JW

right, shit is underrated AF.. all these kids focusing on step backs and mixing

Athletic Alchemy

youtube blocks nba videos over 13min long thats the only reason its not the 1st and only link

Athletic Alchemy

Alch just curious about a tech sorta thing. There are apparently 3 ways you can publish this to the web. The Patreon Version. Then a streamable.com version and finally a UTube version. Sometimes we get all 3, mostly we get the first two with a delay between them, so Patreon people get first perusal. The 3rd one is the one that interests me because I can chromecast that one to my 77" LG OLED. Is there something I can do to make this version my self or do I just get to enjoy the 1 out of 10 times that is like that on my TV and do the other version on my tiny chromebook screen with low end high resolution? If this is all to techie no answer needed.

Anthony Berry

Amazing how this team manages a few wins in spite of kerrs most aggressively bad lineup decisions.

B Master

Idk who Demar’s trainer is but can we hire him for kuminga? Forget 3s if Kuminga has a reliable fadeaway, he’d be a perennial all star starting next year

Offtopic K

There ya go wiggins!! Increase that trade value! Nah at this point Wiggins could be averaging 30 till the deadline and I’d still want him traded 😂
