Couldn’t agree more. Not to mention giving Kevon and Draymond a little bit of rest each game. It’s a win win

2023-02-16 08:21:19 +0000 UTCNever fully count the warriors out especially if everyone's healthy going into the playoffs.

2023-02-15 15:54:47 +0000 UTC@Jakob. Agreed. Although my beef is less about playing time per se - it’s more about Kerr’s ability to squeeze as much juice out of each player as possible (pause). His ability to put every player in the best situation to succeed and help the team either in wins or in the trade market. For example, was there any good reason to start playing Wise 18 minutes at the beginning of the season? He’d been away for two years and being asked to play a role that depends on timing. Even vets remark on how fast the game feels when they’ve been away. Was giving him that many minutes out of the gate the best way to help the team? Why was he playing more minutes than Kuminga, who was more experienced, had played more recently and was less likely to need time easing into things?

2023-02-15 15:03:51 +0000 UTCYup pretty much how I feel. Moving Wiseman for GP2 was a bad move as this game shows we need really need a big but we knew that all along. Draymond punching poole made the team lose trust in him so now we don’t have the emotional leader. Poole & Wiggs getting the bag clearly show that’s we probably won’t retain Dray an integral part of our defense and offense. Not to mention Poole’s lack of defense or effort is just not a good sight to see. We might be competitive and still show flashes but unless we have a huge revelation I don’t see championship success in the next few years

2023-02-15 14:36:37 +0000 UTCAccording to bballreference, Ty’s just at 36 (after the Clippers game). Sure feels like more.

2023-02-15 11:50:29 +0000 UTCEven though we won the game against the wizards, I still think the way we play is not enough. The end of the third quarter was horrible and shows what kind of season the warriors play. I already punted on the season. I can only hope that Kerr and the older players learn from that season and make the necessary adjustments. Also I hope that the younger players get more playing time.

2023-02-15 06:04:46 +0000 UTCI think the front office/coaching and draymond really messed up our dynasty. Just finished Clip& Dubs game and I don’t see it anymore we cooked

2023-02-15 05:40:10 +0000 UTCMoses Moody stepped up 👏JMG and DD did their thing and props to active Looney. I’m too casual to fully understand the nuances of long bball strat. Kerr got the long term vision. Yo Alc you think we might get Santos on the roster within the playoffs?

2023-02-15 02:53:30 +0000 UTCPoole looking more and more like a guy that just signed a huge contract and he doesn't give a shit. At least he's passing now, but his turnovers are kind of funny, so many times he trips himself. I ask you reading this, how many times have you dribbled the ball until you tripped and fell on the ground face first. I think I can remember maybe twice in my life. Poole might average about 2 times a game when he trips himself and lands on the floor face first. I can't say I've ever seen a small do it even half as much in my entire life

2023-02-15 02:22:32 +0000 UTCAbsolutely loved your energy on this breakdown. And I'm still laughing over the "Life of Pi" random reference!
Thomas Ogas
2023-02-15 02:12:47 +0000 UTCYeah, it’d be esp nice to have those plays in the back pocket when the shots dry up in the fourth quarter.
Ejikeme Uzoigwe
2023-02-15 01:12:41 +0000 UTCI’m not sure, but I feel like he just kinda had that spin move and teams were ready for it ps If that is what happened, pretty cool that he’s adapted, rather than forcing it
Ejikeme Uzoigwe
2023-02-15 01:08:06 +0000 UTCTotally agree. I think my favorite part of this season was the first half of that homestand in December (before Kuminga went down). During those string of games, it became clear that our bench had some straight up winners - Ty Jerome played a huge role in making those games special. Just a smart, skilled, poised dude who competes.

2023-02-15 01:04:29 +0000 UTCGreat game for Warriors we almost let it go again but I loved Wiggins game. Loved J. green showing his game off. I think he takes his clothes off before a 💩. He has that look to him. I know I stole that from you Alch but you had me rolling! 💯! Anybody notice Dre had 0 rebounds in 23 mins? WTF! Let’s steal one from the LA Strippers!
Chris Hall
2023-02-15 00:36:50 +0000 UTCThere is a certain podcast host who has an irrational hatred of Ty. Last night on Twitter he posted a series of Ty's bad defensive sequences. I thought to myself, heck you could easily do the same for JP every night. Lets be honest, Steph too. Look, you don't want him playing 20 minutes a night, and we've had to play him more than we should, but in a perfect world he's a solid 11th or 12th guy. The number one thing that Kerr loves about him is that he doesn't turn the ball over. A 7:1 assist to TO ratio last night. Nice. Hope JMG's wrist does not become a thing because him playing playing like its 2020 is an integral part of us threading the playoff needle this year.

Derwin Gaston
2023-02-14 23:52:55 +0000 UTCnot a bad comp, and i know you said that the timing was awful, but KP had good timing defensively which is probably more of an innate thing. dont think wise ever gets that
Ford Carlson
2023-02-14 23:51:34 +0000 UTCI see. They have to be converted by the end of the month or they aren't playoff eligible right?
Nathan Glanzer
2023-02-14 23:40:16 +0000 UTCI think he's realized that at this stage of his career he's not going to get calls and only attacks when he truly feels he's got a lane to score not just draw a foul 'cause the refs just ain't giving it to him. I counted 3 this game that were fouls on anyone else in the league but not our boy.
Nathan Glanzer
2023-02-14 23:39:27 +0000 UTCThe more I think about the Wiseman trade, the angrier I get. It was just horrible asset management. It’s fine if Wise didn’t fit our system, but he’s a 7ft dude with great touch, who can move his feet, and, by all accounts, would work hard to do what the team asked. And the team couldn’t get anything out of him?? Nothing?? It’s fkn unacceptable. He’s soft, he doesn’t play defense…fine. Give him 8 minutes a game specifically drawn up to highlight his strengths and minimize his weaknesses. That might have been all it took to be able to trade him for real assets - not a depleted GP2. If you don’t want him, then the job is to do your best to convince the league that he’s the next KAT. We did the opposite. Its just madness. Throwing valuable assets in the trash is NOT the way to support the oh so precious core. Okay, rant over.

2023-02-14 22:59:37 +0000 UTCIts as if they they can evaluate NBA tape and see how a player would translate to the system.. but not college.

Athletic Alchemy
2023-02-14 22:56:54 +0000 UTCPast couple games the defense has treated him like Dray when he’s at the perimeter and there’s a good rim protector waiting for him in Porzingis and Davis compared to attacking Jokic
Andres Lozano
2023-02-14 22:18:44 +0000 UTChim and Lamb as 2-ways have 50 of the 82 to play, they're both at 30+ games still I think...? i might be mistaken tho

2023-02-14 22:16:23 +0000 UTCAlch, Lakob should be paying you to keep the season's narrative interesting for dubnation. put you on postgame live I might even watch it
Daniel Fries
2023-02-14 21:43:25 +0000 UTCMaybe it’s recency bias but has kuminga attacked the rim less recently? Switch more to play making and jump shots. Wish he could find a happy medium and get to the line and collect some fouls on the other team. I feel like he’s driven less and has become a little “rusty” in that aspect. Which makes get offensive fouls more
Ben D
2023-02-14 21:40:47 +0000 UTCKuminga can play in the post as well, we need to develop that part of his game. I just hate the fact that Kerr never calls his number, just because he's a young player.
Jimmy Ji
2023-02-14 21:39:37 +0000 UTCI agree with you on so many points.. like I don’t even want to imagine how the team would’ve looked if kerr was here during steph, klay, and dray early years… I feel like he has a soft heart for those because those were pretty much his roles in the league.. never a young star with franchise altering talent like kuminga and Wiseman
Offtopic K
2023-02-14 21:33:49 +0000 UTCI need this energy when steph comes back… the best we looked this year was a few games out of steph’s return.. but yes this is a good win where we just wanted it more than Washington

Cristian Paulino
2023-02-14 20:45:31 +0000 UTCYou brought up a great point, Warriors always get great contributions from old vets as well as undrafted lottery guys that have bounced around. But at what cost? The development of our own draft pics? My fear is by the end of Kuminga's rookie deal, he's still the same type of player he is now. It seems to me Kerr has an ulterior motive to try and get these vets paid by giving them longer leashes and more minutes. Sidenote: I hope Detroit allows Wiseman to play like how he wants to play, as a perimeter player. I think he can mirror his game after KP. His timing and feel for the game is still really bad but it will improve as he's given more playing time.
Jimmy Ji
2023-02-14 20:33:44 +0000 UTCAlch, now that dedmon is gone, who would you pick from the bigs left? I'll always like chriss, but i would be probably still go with boogie. I'd also be fine with anything at this point. Sad to know that ty is probably out of here now that gp2 is coming back. You gotta preach the iggy retirement or moving to a coaching position louder lol I'd hate to see us lose ty or lamb.

2023-02-14 20:12:25 +0000 UTCgod dayum wiggins looked like a god last night man, i don't know why the fuck we ever stopped going to him inside for tough twos when we need em, but now that we are doing it again it is very promising.

2023-02-14 20:11:07 +0000 UTCAlch you knew it was coming lmao.Soon as Jmg put some good games together.You know kerr was itching to jk on the bench I joke. but I said it before if you could ask kuminga and he would give a real answer.😂I bet he would say he wishes he was traded like Wiseman

Branden Edwards
2023-02-14 20:05:11 +0000 UTCI think he is just going to be what he is and thats still a nice back up guard. You look at his frame it is what it is lol
Athletic Alchemy
2023-02-14 20:03:36 +0000 UTCstring it together now! Got to see more, but it looks like he has adjusted.
Athletic Alchemy
2023-02-14 20:02:31 +0000 UTCyeah that Wiggins jump hook in the lane is money right now, usually a good indicator he's feeling good. We need him to step up and be physical again.

2023-02-14 20:02:26 +0000 UTCthats a great point.. Dot and West used to get their fair share of post ups.. boogie too
Athletic Alchemy
2023-02-14 20:01:55 +0000 UTCMan Ty Jerome is just a baller. Good backup pg to have. He's our steadiest ballhandler and rarely turns it over. Float game is nice. If he strengthens his core and improves his lateral quickness for defense, he could be a real NBA player. His defensive instincts are good, just doesn't have the athleticism.
A m a r Singg
2023-02-14 20:01:37 +0000 UTCno I haven't.. no PG and KL so often I stopped paying attention. TNT both in the line up gonna be tough

2023-02-14 20:00:54 +0000 UTCMoody is defending well now. And he has the size to drive strong to the hood. So happy for him
Natto Santo
2023-02-14 19:58:53 +0000 UTCBeen saying this to my homies all year. That system stuff is great. Best offense in the league when the backdoor is open and those post-splits are catching guys off guard. But sometimes we gota simplify stuff. Kuminga and Wiggins both are mismatch attacking wings. We gota go to that more. Looney has improved his finishing. Some post presence will really keep defenses honest. We use to do that in spurts with Livingston... David West and Mo Speights. Just 2-3 possessions of post play where we not looking for the predictable pass will throw defenses off. The whole league know we not looking to score out the post. Time to shake it up. And maybe whoever we buy out... or sign (Boogie) can give us some shot variance in that area. Boogie still require double teams against some players and he is great out of the post. Lets get him.
Ballin Forever
2023-02-14 19:55:57 +0000 UTCThe LA Klay day after factor gotta be big! Are you watching much Clips? On paper we get clipped, but they’re so inconsistent like us.
