Dray = caca (bad back)

Wig = caca (bad back)

Curry = caca (just could not hit the side of a barn)

No big to help out in the middle = caca

Can't expect too much, if the Big Bench 3 weren't amazing this could have been real ugly.

Regular season game for 2 top seeds. Both not at full strength. Game doesn’t mean much considering if they meet in the playoffs this will look way different. I’d be upset if this was game 1 in the wcf

Damn yo that game made me salty as hell last night.

Draymond not taking an open lane and forcing it into a double covered Looney is the most infuriating thing I've seen. This guy is so allergic to trying to score it's ridiculous.

On the plus side, Poole looked amazing!! Really looking forward to his development. He's going to kill it off the bench in the playoffs.

Full credit to the PHX, they sped us up and we threw the ball away or forced things as a result. Now we get a really cool opportunity to adjust in a similar format to the playoffs. A good challenge for our coaching staff.

Disappointed, though it doesn't matter that much. I was just hoping the Ws would sweep. Perhaps this will motivate them; there's still work to do.

The fact they didn't blow us out despite curry playing one of his worse games on his career tells you all you need to know, the suns aren't a threat to us

I think Chiozza was on the floor because everybody was making dumb passes and Kerr got tired of it.

Question: Is

"80% Klay + Andre + DLee + JW in Javale role"

greater than

"Booker + Kaminsky + Nader"?

I would think yes . Not counting Saric since I am assuming he is out whole year.

61 games and PO to go

It's a long way to go

Curry not being able to take Ayton on the switch two or three times gave me Kevin Love 2016 PTSD. He looked real tight all night and usually looks so against physical defenses that take him out of any rhythm. Until we have an answer for Ayton defensively we have to make him a liability on the other end when getting switched out on the perimeter.

Bjelica over his last 11 games is 7/31 for a cool 23% from 3P land. I thought this might have been a matchup for him, but he continued to look really bad by the eye test. Something to monitor.

Somehow we killed them on the boards 60 vs. 43 (15 vs. 8 OREB)

Turnovers. I counted six by JTA in his 12 minutes although the official count was only 5...I kept saying in the second half, "If they just stop with the turnovers..." and the turnovers went on and on and on. Toss in a half dozen shots at the rim that missed and they were doubly doomed. Oh and Curry had one of his worst shooting game ever. Triply doomed. It was torture.
