Instead of working on a E1P (I know), I put in a new APRIBOT feature in the article which shows a matrix of every player's +/- when facing every opposing player. I'm not sure it will be interesting every game, but this game it really tells some stories, like poor Draymond's contributions that don't show in a box score.

3-8 in the West, 6 consecutive losses (Heat, Thunder, Suns x2, Hawks, and Nuggets), and about to go on a 7-game road trip. Boy, they're in for a rough ride.

After that OKC game I admit I came in to tonight pretty damn anxious. Thank you Steph, I needed some sweet Chef cooking! Brilliant game for Curry and impressive win overall. Cannot believe that Will Richard is starting though ... something is going on that I don't fully understand but I accept.

ESPN couldn't even get the score right and tried to add an extra 12 minutes to the game.

Let's just do this ourselves since no one else seems to be able to take care of it.

We are going to vote on Wembanyama's height. In the chat thread are options, click on the one that you think is correct. The one that has the most votes by midnight Thursday is correct.

nba. com's new box score stats option are now up for the dubs game, about 2 hours after finish. And yep, I'm getting my fond wish for fouls drawn. Steph 11, jimmybucks 7. Pretty cool stuff: https://www.nba.com/game/gsw-vs-sas-0022500220/box-score?type=misc (for fouls drawn).

Lots of other stats views available, just change the selector of "misc".

Now I'll amend my earlier post about what stats I would track were I grand high pooh-bah of stats. Fouls drawn is cool, but we also need to track how many of them are desparation take fouls by the behind team in last two minutes.

In just the last 4 nights, the Thunder have held Ja Morant to 11 points on 3-18 shooting, Stephen Curry to 11 on 4-13, Luka Doncic to 19 on 7-20, and Austin Reaves to 13 on 4-12.

Those guys might just be pretty good. Though I doubt they do that as easily to not-sick Steph

52 points in 31 minutes. 17/22 from the floor (5/6 on threes) and 13/14 on FTs. Probably done for the night as Nuggets have 20 point lead with 7 minutes left

Klay dropped 19 points tonight but his efficiency was bad. Is the dude ever going to get better at shock selection?

He did shoot the three-ball better tonight than the world's greatest shooter enjoying a 46 point performance

Yeah but the W tips the scale. 😉

dinohealth's avatar

The scale would tip only if KLAY were doing that next to STEPH, in which case the game would have been won after 3 quarters, with MOODY of course, at the SF slot, and, all getting the same points with better shooting percentages...

Surprised Dray wasn't on the WW poll. He played Wemby as well as anyone can, awesome performance even with the crappy shooting. Apribot's formlua short changes him for this game imo

Tonight confirms that Team USA would have had an easier time winning gold had they brought Draymond instead of Adebayo

I'm ok with this, old dray horse needs his time in the pasture. He was insanely focused tonight, what he did to wembyman was a clinic in nope can't go there, nope can't catch there, yeah take that shot and try not to notice my bigassed hand waving by your face.

Wembyman still had a good stats game, 31 points on just 22 shots, at least a few of which he made over dray. I'd love to know his +/- with and without dray hounding his ass.

Yeah agreed with both beli and yourself. Team USA would have been better with Dray on it and I'm still happy that he wasn't there to save some wear and tear on his body

Yep APRIBOT did him dirty. Dray had some great defense. (But also some pretty bad plays.)

He we certainly not perfect but I think on balance he was the easily the third most important player to the Dubs getting the win tonight, if not the second
