It looked to me like Steph grabbed his deltoid muscle so I’m hoping it’s a strained muscle and not a tear. 🙏

Have the warriors ever been on the right side of a challenge?

Yeah, Boston game 6!

Kerr needs to step it up

If Curry is out for a signficant amount of time.

Time to call up Wiseman and play him 36mpg and tank for Victor!

I think that’ll get me to watch some games.

I actually think “forced rest” for Steph for a couple weeks could do him and the team some good. Would give his 34 y.o. body and mind some needed rest, and force Poole and co. to sink or swim in his absence. Worked out really well for us at the end of last season.

I was hoping that would happen at the end of this season. Not sure about the value of rest now. We want him fresh for the playoffs.

I dont trust kerr enough for that tbh I think itll be a disaster if he misses time and it's a possibility we implode eith klay and draymonds ego

The moxy required to think and act like you know more about both basketball and this team in particular than Steve Frickin’ Kerr is off the charts, but here we are.

Where the fuck did I say I could figure it out? Fuck outta here

JP hasn't been a swimming Poole often enough lately. He needs to take a deep breath and slow down a bit.

Though last year's team won a lot early to give them leeway to slump in the 2nd half of the season and absorb injuries.

Yeeeee Haaaaa!

if this is indeed a championship season then it’s right out of “Legion” season 3

can we just aim to make the playoffs?

I quit that show mid-way season 2.

ok, “Time Bandits”?

There ya go. The refs and the whole league can just fuck off just like the kids parents at the end

Jerome looked very good earlier in the season, he looked like shit tonight.

DDV is a good enough back up guard. Trade Wiseman when he rippens up with Poole and maybe we can get Russell Westbrook and JTA.

Ewww.

(Salaries don’t come close to matching, but I’m not sure if serious…)

I’m not im just upset lol

Jordan Poole still getting blocked at the rack. He

needs to work on a counter, didn’t Robert Williams teach him a lesson in the finals?

Expand full comment

His lack of awareness of where defenders are is infuriating sometimes. You can’t just make b-lines to the rim and expect NBA defenses to let you lay it in.

even Curry puts it high off the glass for security

C'mon guys, don't you see it? We are playing against hungry teams, against officials, against NBA, and against ourselves. Let's admit it, we're not contending this season. Fighting against reality leads to ruin.

So … forfeit the season?

IiRC, that was your plan last season too.

Developing a young team IS NOT forfeiting. Look at Indiana. Look at Utah. And BTW, sorry, I won't shut up because you hold a grudge against me.

Expand full comment

Lol, I didn’t tell you to shut up. Maybe your own guilty conscience?

You dropped a lot of incoherent points in that rage post, but “develop the young players” was not one of them. I’m all for doing that, of course.

Yeah, your passive aggressivity is right what I needed.

Cool, happy to help! 😊

I seem to recall this as well

Expand full comment

Yup.

We're like the LA Rams of basketball. Christ

I am finding it harder and harder to like Poole - he is unwatchable as a player and just not clever enough to play in a Kerr system - whatever that means when Steph is not in.

Expand full comment

Where do we go for Steph updates?

Expand full comment

If Draymond hadn’t given up like 6 points with his antics we would have won

Expand full comment

Yep, it was 8 + mins left and the Dubs still had a chance, but he gave up.

Shades of 2020. :-(

In lesser-observed developments, Kuminga started for Looney in the second half. Wonder what it means.

Expand full comment

It means JMG will start since he hit 3 3s tonight

“Mr. Natural, what does it all mean?”
