This is how Houston fans have to watch games? No wonder they're so dumb.

Pretty sure TJD wouldn't have feasted nearly so much had Sengun been in there, they were clearly missing him. I'm thinking that ideally, you have Kuminga taking CP3's minutes so we have another paint threat and better defense, or we'll get punished by the better, bigger teams (like what's been happening all year).

Klay shooting like 37pt Klay again. It will propel us back to elite teams. With shooting and vertical spacer TJD, JK and Wig, defenders like Draymond and GP2. All around players like Podz and Moody. We are able to compete with Denvers, Wolves, and Boston.

I kinda like being able to see the physicality and how quick the moves have to be in the NBA to get by your man.
But yeah that was some Gen Z shit talking - all for show on social media and no actual smoke 😂 I was surprised at docile Brooks considering Klay was busting their asses and letting them know about it every chance he got but I'll take it lmao

Maybe Kuminga doesn't contribute much to winning? idk. He is too green atm. TJD has overtaken him in importance in the starting lineup. His issue right now is his defense and 3 point shooting just doesn't fit at the 4 if we need to get the much out of wiggins and a healthy Draymond. Other young players got his opportunity but went back to the bench or was traded. He needs to ride the bench for a while. Right now the starters are clicking

I bet the NBA is going to do everything in their power to have the Lakers and Warriors advance into the playoffs. That means having the Kings drop down to the 9th spot and the Lakers moving up to the 8th to play the Pelicans. Sorry Kings and Pelicans fans, you guys are officially the sacrificial lambs for this year's play-in tournament.

I picked up kenyonte George on my fantasy league last week and I think he had 15 TO in 3 games. I think D Murray is doing the same thing to me this week 😩

When they had their fun/fast streak (before CP came back), Wiggs was coming off the bench and looked good doing it. It made him more assertive.
It makes sense to change the starter based on the matchup. If it's Luka you want Wiggins on him as much as possible.

def gotta at least retire Klay's jersey in Houston. That's def his house

I got to imagine they are two options that I didn't see. Its a new local network call ed "Space city" .. I think you bring JK off the bench because Wigs is the far more fragile player

its cool if we don't have to really discuss too many schematics. It be dope if I had the option to cut in and use this camera when needed

do the people in houston really watch the game like that?! Besides the camera zoom in, Unc, what do you think the warriors should do with the starting line up when kuminga comes back?

Come on man, Steph has earned the right to take damn near any shot he wants.
At least save that gun powder for a game he's not 9-14 from the field with a team leading +29.
If he all of a sudden turns into Jordan Poole then by all means have at it.
I do think they should rest Steph tonight but that doesn't give the team a license to "punt" the game.

Be interesting if OKC can steal the 1 seed. This current iteration of the Warriors isn't built to hold a candle to the Nuggs but taking the odds on the Dubs upsetting the Thunder in a 7 game series would be wicked....
Still got two Ws though to even see any of it play out. See if there's any juice left in the tank after this late season push. Hopefully today in Dallas it's the Lester Q cooking show and the Chef rests in street clothes.

Ngl. I kinda fw the closer camera angle. it made a lot of your commentary more cinematic in a way, similar to a live broadcast announcer that's only focused on the on ball action. I know off-ball stuff is so much of your commentary as well, but this felt like The Alc Experience: "See The Game Through Alc's Eyes" lmao
yan't get right
2024-04-05 20:12:00 +0000 UTC
Nah, and this is coming from a TJ-D Stan, bigs' per 36 efficiency plummet when they're overworked. Playing inside while simtanoulsly having to come out to perimeter and run the floor is a different sport than the other 4 positions. Now, he's sort of of small ball 5 that plays traditional due to shooting limitations- so one could argue, he can handle the 32 minute work load - and I would argue, you're right, with the current roster or in an upcoming play-in game, I'd prefer an all you can eat buffet of Jackson-Davis at the 5, but moving forward this front court rotation is 1 big short and needs to be addressed in the off-season. Ideally, longterm he's utilized for 23-26 mins, with another starting caliber center soaking up the other half the load so they both can rev their engines hot every second they're on the floor.

Kuminga will never be an All Star apex predator until he is a 3, and he cannot be a 3 without a solid 3 pointer. Cause he is not a title contending piece at the 4 … he just ain’t. And he draymond could go back to being a PF 75% of the time … he may actually get through his newly signed contract

Can we talk about how Klay just magically turns into Steve Nash whenever he and Trayce run a PNR 😭😭. Klay be making passes to TJD that I didn’t know were in his bag
Coreyy
2024-04-05 19:54:14 +0000 UTC
i know this was a blowout but in most games TJD still doesn't play enough minutes in my opinion. He should be playing like at least 32 minutes a night.

In an alternative universe where Kerr played TJ-D and Moody from the get, this story probably would've unfolded quite differently.

Alc you’ve been getting super quick with these. Is it me or have you gotten into a better work flow?
Paul Byun
2024-04-05 19:44:06 +0000 UTC
Kuminga should come off the bench, but my problem is that Kerr souring the relationship makes that a hard thing to do, I know he says *his* door is always open, but what about proactively building a relationship with your guys? That’s the only thing that makes Kuminga’s return difficult, and once again the bad coaching habits spoil team cohesion.
