Geoff Brady

You pronounce Jovic similarly to Jokic.. so [yo-vitch] and [yo-kitch] :)

Sander Sokk

I want one playoff round so we can get JK, Podz, TJD, Mood some meaningful run in playoff games

Gui had to play not only were his parent there, but Neymar was there as well. He had to show as you would say... for the culture.

GenerationTRS80

God bless that someone man. Scammers scam, that’s a fact. He sure made a ton of money. No arguing that. What you said is a fact. What I said is a fact too. Not contradictory. Just not sure who’s gonna take that bait that summer but you’re right there’s plenty of stupid managers in the league. BTW Just saw Chris add another turnover in his half: Joe Ingles said to Cole Anthony who stole the ball “I told you” and Cole said “it works!” lol

godeau

I'm not here to debate you on what you're seeing right now or how you feel. I'm just stating the facts. He's a vet point guard. Hall of famer. Someone will want him.

I just turned on TV after I saw they had a 27-10 first quarter, and what did I see? Chris Paul frozen the Dubs offense and Dubs had to zone cuz Paul can’t stand in front of his man. And a 13-2 run to start the second and it only took 3 mins! I’m gonna throw up….

godeau

a vet PG who doesn't turn over the ball? My man just had a 8 sec violation and lost the ball in his half leading to a layup in the above video bro lol ; you think Popovich gave a shit to Chris Paul? Create play? Stop it man, I can't keep laughing lol ; my bad on the contracts tho, i was just too focused on why they didn't cut him last summer, cuz that's how the Suns were going to do (that's why they structured his contract in such a odd way, last 2 yrs both non-guaranteed) and he had another 30m on the book? ain't no way lacob listen to Steph this time! Mofo costs 10m overall and plays worse than any vet min guy lol OMG worst single season contract ever, not even close

godeau

I mean Aww, he's really like that!

adrian salazar

Sense of urgency has entered the room. I think it finally hit them that they might not make it to the playoffs.. about damn time. love the kdot nod in there alch.

adrian salazar

Alch Loved that K-dot like that addition to the reaction! Completely came out of no where. Curious to see hear your opinion on this Hip Hop Big 3? I stand with Kendrick.

Kendrick

I think the resting Steph situation was just a coach's decision based on how his body language looked. We been talking for a while about how he has often looked out of it and gassed. And it might have been a strategy to try and get Wiggins more involved on-ball Im literally just guessing because that shit didn't make sense to me either lmao

Ballin Forever

Yes, the Warriors have the ability to sign and trade CP3. They can alway waive him and let him walk. "No money guaranteed in 2024/25. Contract becomes fully guaranteed if not waived by June 28, 2024." There are plenty of teams that need a veteran point guard who do not turn over the ball and can create plays. The Spurs are one of those teams. OKC is another team that might want him in the locker room.

decomplexify5000

I’d like to think that after Kerr was so candid about his “give up threes to protect the paint” strategy, the coaching staff got cooked in their DMs by all their coaching buddies around the league and were shamed/humiliated into making a change.

Nice to get a win and see Wiggins look good, Klay popping off, etc. but it still was against a weak Heat team without some of their best players. I'll be more impressed if we beat Orlando tonight, but it's a very tough matchup. Good breakdown my guy.

Crimson

i just can't believe we are actually talking starting Klay or not

godeau

exact same feeling here! he's that springy back in 2016, with all the hesi jumpers in the world. He switched to the Harden stepbacks and jab stepbacks only afterwards, with some hop jumpers off a between the leg dribble. But I agree: I'd love to see him pulling off more hesi Jumpers.

godeau

Yo! facts re: that Steph hang dribble pull-up 3 on Bam. I feel like I haven't seen him do one of those in iso in a long time. best shooter ever should not be dancing this much. step backs cost more legs I love when we play Miami because it just feels like the only other team who's consistently on that system shit, enough to where we feel justified for running our stuff and trying to think in terms of X's and Os. It's so much easier to watch than seeing our old farts get scored on and try to inbound fast and catch a bunch of 23 year olds off guard.

yan't get right

sign? sign? you really think anyone is gonna be stupid like Kerr to sign Chris Paul to play basketball? My man even the wizards ain't that stupid. To be fair, Chris can still compete in China.

godeau

Fair. I meant sign and trade. They should be able to do that and find a younger, better option for that spot. Less bobblehands.

decomplexify5000

yeah I been praying Kerr gets fired for a year now: it's in vain; we would have been top 2 in the west right now if Kerr was fired after that embarrassing series vs Coach LeBron

godeau

figuring out they have very few games left to play lol

godeau

cuz he's trying to bully instead of feel the defense? When you bully, you extend your center of gravity out to initiate contact, extending its distance to the ball and opens the gap for a poke. Or the defense can just pull a chair on you. Just bad fundamentals. When you post up, the footwork is the same as a boxout: ass out, knee bent, keep the ball close to the center of gravity.

godeau

ain't gonna happen as long as Kerr is still sitting sideline my man. Kerr hates Mose in the guts. And no need to trade CP, his 30M ass expires next month.

godeau

Hypocrisy? Nah, Bron patented that word Alch. Find another one for Steve. How about bitch? It's Bron word too but at least it's not owned by him.

godeau

another great game recap. Calling it what it is: Wiggins shows flashes only when deemed necessary; now that there's talk of breaking this team up, he'll play better. Let's move on and give that spot to Moody. Keep Klay for 20 a night over Podz. Trade CP3 in the offseason and let Podz go to work. Maybe they look to getting Valanciunas in the off season to grab boards, stretch the floor and set crushing picks. His stats from 3 are actually good!

decomplexify5000

About overhand vs underhand floater, first there's no underhand floater. A floater is a running one handed overhand shot. If you shoot it underhand, it's a fingerroll as signatured by George Gervin. Steph has probably the best fingerroll after Ice and Clyde, and you see he went away from being the best floater in the history (i mean his 2015/16 floater game is a piece of art), to spending ton of time to be a fingerroll-er. And there's a reason: a fingerroll is superior for being a much higher % of a shot than a floater. Steph made the transition entirely after he came back in 20/21, although he's been trying here and there since 2017/18 season. Kyrie tried it, but never mastered it. Sometimes ppl confuse the Dr. J hang layup to a Ice fingerroll, which are technique-wise two different shots. Or even think Jelly is a fingerroll. Jelly is easy and tons of players had jelly. Who else had a fingerroll? Allen Iverson. I'm out.

godeau

I pray that next year Kerr takes a Miami approach to the roster. Anyone can and will play if they don’t cause mistakes and play hard. This effort today shows that if the individual players want to show up they will. We would be a top 4 team in the west if we got this defensive effort every night starting in January

Offtopic K

About the missed travelling calls, I think they just don't give a shit if you don't gain a outrageous advantage, you can take an extra step or two and blame it on you being two quick. Like at 8:44 didn't Chris Paul took 3 steps after he gathered the ball with that hop spin before he finally made a dribble? Just bad fundamentals and if you call that all the time, you gonna break the flow of the game.

godeau

And ppl think my boy has handles? Thats next lvl trolling lol

godeau

Speaking of hands, Alch - any thoughts on why Kuminga gets his pocket picked so often in the post?

Ejikeme Uzoigwe

I think they’re beginning to figure it out! 😂😂

Ejikeme Uzoigwe

That 8 sec? Nah, that ain't no shitting on Kerr. That's Chris Paul signature. We don't know? If you press Chris Paul, hes likely gonna end up with a 8 sec violation. My boy probably held the most career 8 sec violations/ press turnovers.

godeau

Kerr and crew too busy sniffing their own asses, these latest interviews with Kerr made me realize that he might have an ego issue, he talks like he has all the answers, they never show up in games, never his fault or responsibility. He’s too busy thinking he can coach the game before it’s played, and that’s probably why he thinks he has the leisure to sit on his ass with his arms folded while the opposing team goes on runs.

Sarcasm 360

Klay starting makes the most sense for the starting unit from a spacing standpoint. If Kerr and the coaching staff continue to try to start Podz instead of limiting his playtime to match his play and experience, next year is gonna be the same. Sorry but he's a role player - not a starter. Get the hierarchy and defense right or crumble. Kerr and the crew gotta let go of the past or be dragged.

Anthony English

I be wondering why Wiggins hands are so bad. Especially after seeing Kuminga slowly improve over time.Like buddy you are 30 now lol

mr.bean

Moody hitting 3s? Ramp him up some? Looney and TJD can indeed still sponge some of Draymond’s center minutes, although looney was getting cooked early, that is an option. Glad they swallowed the pride and started Klay, Klay knew he had no business playing like he did to start off anyway. Can Kerr please stop sitting Steph 10 minutes, that “2 extra minutes” crap already hit you in the face this game not waiting till 5 minutes left to play Curry, guess what, a 7 point lead went UP and not DOWN. That’s new for this team.

Sarcasm 360

This is has got to be the hardest season to be a fan. Not sure if I should be hopeful or pack it in. It’s a game to game basis at this point
