We're the only ones who haven't lost the Kings yet. And apparently, all of the Kings wins against the Suns, the Lakers, and the Clippers have been on the road. So they must play better on the road than at home.
Sure that was painful: horrific Steph shooting, terrible turnovers, ugly ugly stuff. But I enjoyed the Poole, OPJ early breakouts, some awesome defense, nifty GP2 work, some hustle by Bjeli, hard work by Wiggs on D, etc. Every team has off nights so I have zero concerns for the season. And I fully expect the coaching staff to learn from this, and beat it into the guys so they come out stomping on Friday.
And I’m really glad to see them holding Andre back, being cautious but steady with Klay and Wiseman, and making sure to send the rooks to Santa Cruz for extra reps. If the Dubs win a lot more than sixty games it probably means they’re stretching their core too far and risking playoff success for a bunch of meaningless extra wins.
I just woke up (6 a.m. here) and I might be into a delusional dream but… is it possible? Is Klay accelerating relativistically his return and… omg… playing on Friday?
I hate to break it to the fans, but what we saw last night was a Curry choke, pure and simple. Too much adrenaline? Anticipation? It doesn't matter, he choked. Yes, Phoenix defended well, but Curry has seen this many times. Curry is human and it is bound to happen. He is not a god as many make him out to be.
Green needs to make himself a scorer. He is too one dimensional on offense and is repetitive in his choice of passes and situations. He needs to show that he can score, and he can. I don't know why he has chosen to be hesitant, but indeed, he is a hesitant shooter, passing up shots in favor of dangerous passes and hero tactics, equaling bad judgement.
These two players did not execute their games. They seemed to have forgotten Poole in the 4th quarter, the hottest hand on the Warriors and OPJ. Green to Curry, Green to Curry. WTF.
I may have forgotten but was JTA this afraid to shoot last year? It seems like he never takes open 3s anymore. He's following Dray a little too much. That's why I didn't put too much stock in his 40% 3 point percentage last year.
Curry has done an amazing job getting the stupid reach in fouls out of his game this year after really hitting bottom on them last year, perhaps he could do the same with all the lightening passes that only he seems to think are high reward, his style might be having a bad influence on guys like JTA/Poole/Chiozza who, to my eye, seem to get caught up in that type of passing as well
I believe in the next few days, Warriors are gonna find a way to counter the Suns defense and not commit too many turnovers like they did last night, while the Suns will try and find a way to make sure that Porter Jr. and Poole do not score a lot of points again. They may also try and exploit Payton II's defense as well.

Nice comeback attempt by the short-handed Clippers, but the deficit was too much, and the Kings win in the end. Clippers are now 11-11.
Yo, it’s December! Klay almost certainly going to play in real games this month!

Paul George is getting his first rest day tonight, and the Clippers without any of their star players are losing to the Kings right now.
In the NBA:
-Hawks barely beat the Pacers
-Magic beat the Nuggets
-Wizards beat the Wolves
-Celtics narrowly beat the 76ers
-Cavaliers rout the Heat
-Bucks barely beat the Hornets
-Mavericks rout the Pelicans
-Rockets beat the Thunder
-Clippers-Kings is a close game in the 1st quarter so far.

Flags flying at half mast today.
I haven't listened to it yet but I bet it's good. Draymond talking about last night's game on his podcast.

A classic TikTok from RJ. People need to talk about Lebrons performance in this masterpiece more often

Warriors assign Moody and Kuminga to Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz has two home games on Friday and Saturday (as do the Warriors).
