It was during halftime of the Golden State Warriors eventual victory over LeBron James’s Los Angeles Lakers. As the breakdown plays start up, Charles Barkley quips, “The Lakers suck. Let’s just get that out the way.” As a starting point, it’s accurate, and also, a pretty major indication of just how far these two franchises fortunes have flipped. It’s a long road back to the top, and no one knows what will happen this season, but this sure felt like an auspicious start to the new season.

It was ring night, the champs got their due.

There was a lot to like in tonight’s game.

The core looks as good as ever.

Wiggins and Poole both played great.

Wiseman looked fantastic.

Kuminga is a super disruptive athlete that seems to find his way into plays.

The second unit is going to be really, really fun.

Warriors have been planning for the Jordan Poole, James Wiseman high pick-and-roll game to be a big part of the second unit dating back to last season. This will be a large part of the new non-Curry unit’s identity.

As always, this is just a short thread so our community can gather and discuss the game. Come back tomorrow for full coverage (and possibly a bit of gloating).

The Lakers are just really bad. They play such an ugly iso-heavy, stand around, no movement offense. Seemed like all their runs came in transition off our mistakes. I feel bad for AD. Obviously, he has his own health issues, but he'd be a nightmare to play against if he was playing within a movement offense.

I didn't think we played all that well. Some of the turnovers were exceptionally unforced. On a positive note, I thought we created good quality shots and just didn't have our best shooting night. Altogether, pretty good start/result. You could see this team really hitting its stride 20-30 games in when the young players have found a rhythm/comfort in their roles and the vets lock back in.

E1P = Every 1 Party

Edit: And, of course I posted this in the wrong thread. Doh.
