I can't imagine Steph playing tomorrow night. It's a perfect time for some rest especially for the return of Klay. We need the Splash Bros bright and shiny for Cleveland. Let Chiozza run the offense for the last time this season and give plenty of minutes to Q who actually might surprise a lot of folks. Send Kuminga and Moody back to Santa Cruz for the opening game of 2022. The both need the reps down there.

Don't have anything much to say, other than watching last night felt legitimately painful. These games will happen. But I hope Steph finds his mojo sooner than later.

Trying not to invest too much in Klay playing on Saturday, we'll see if he does and how it goes.

On to the next...

In response to the atrocity that was last night's game, pengpeiyi has now been banned. I will be taking his place. Let's hope that this sparks the necessary changes to right the ship. Complacency will not be tolerated.

Curry just seems mentally drained. I'd give him today off and call it a wash.

Also there was 0 movement from most everyone last night.

We're asking too much off our stars, and we're letting valid players rot on the bench. I humbly suggest to alternate two lineups. @NOP: Moody-Q-JTA-JK-Belly. At least, if we have to lose today, we will win tomorrow.

Seems like curry shoots more when hes off then when hes on, hoping he stops forcing the issue when hes having an off night

Still can’t believe Wiggins and Curry passed up wide open layups… at least Wiggins threw the ball to a Warrior player, where Steph threw it to a spectator…

Blech

That was neither fun nor beautiful. Odd game, best soon forgotten.

Certainly makes Klayday even more sweeter (and necessary!). But there was A LOT of really WTF plays by the Dubs today. Definitely a Move On game. Not what we wanted, but this is still beyond what we could have wished for at the end of Phase I. Super Excited for Phase II!

Steph during presser - "Not optimistic about playing tomorrow ( because of Quad contusion)"

As bad as Steph looked tonight, his +/- was 0 in 36 minutes. With him off the floor, Dubs were -17 in 12 minutes. Gravity is still a thing.

I think Steph rests tomorrow and returns with his backcourt mate on Sunday.

Why the Dubs didn't play Otto tonight and rest him tomorrow?..idk.

Steve saying he will make the adjustments to help Steph get out of his slump. It would also help if they did not surround him with 3 non shooters. Steph should also play a little more on ball too.
