Post-game: Patrick Baldwin Jr rains 5 threes in Barclays! (Also, Nets vaporize Warriors)
Wiseman dominates in game-long existential garbage time
Well, I didnโt expect to win that one, and my expectations were fulfilled thoroughly. At least a 40 point loss counts the same as a single 1 point loss.
How it started:
Warriors officially without Steph Curry, Andrew Wiggins, Klay Thompson, Donte DiVincenzo and JaMychal Green tonight at Nets. James Wiseman questionable with a left thumb sprain.
How it ended:
Just watched the Wiseman highlights from last night - my takeaway is that Wiseman can dunk without dribbling despite being what I would say is quite far from the hoop.
Hmmmmmm. This is the first I'm reading that Wiseman was meant to be a "post-Curry center". He was drafted in 2020...when Steph was 32.
"Yet here is Wiseman, a vastly different kind of player than his predecessors. The Warriors accepted that when they drafted him. They saw him as their post-Curry center, someone who could be a presence in the paint at both ends, capable of getting 20 points and 10 rebounds most any night." - Monte Poole
