Re: Steph update

Young guys? Kerr started three 21 year olds last night. I'm not sure that has ever happened in an NBA game before. When they helped Steph and Draymond get off to a 14-0 lead Kerr, for some strange reason, decided to start making subs at the 7:14 mark. The Knicks scored when DiVicenzo drove by Klay f...

Re: Steph update

Warriors win. 9-2 last 11 games. Steph great again and a little above his average. Trayce Jackson-Davis got 15 minutes from Kerr! 17 pts on 8 for 10 shooting, 5 rbds, 2 blocks, 0 TOs in those 15 minutes ... Time for him to get 25+ mpg. He is the most efficient player on the team in both scoring and ...

Re: Lefty Driesell

"I'm just tired and I've got this bad cold and I'm just going to retire," Driesell said.

Lefty made that phone call to Tom Lewis, Ga. State VP.

Re: Lefty Driesell

A good friend of mine, Tom Lewis, was a VP at Georgia State when they were considering hiring Lefty. He was at the table when they were discussing the hire. The president of the university expressed reservations ... that maybe Lefty was a little nutty. When Tom (a big time basketball fan like us) wa...

Re: Lefty Driesell

Giant personality/ego? I love this quote from Dave Kindred's article on Lefty The Case For Lefty Driesell Mar 29, 2018: It was 1969. Ted Williams managed the Washington Senators. Vince Lombardi coached the Washington Redskins. “They (Maryland AD Jim Kehoe) told me the summers belonged to Ted William...

Re: Lefty Driesell

When I talked to responsible adults about coming to Davidson, the ONLY thing about which I was given consist feedback was that Davidson had been a basketball powerhouse. No mention of academic rigor, beautiful campus, strong honor code, etc. Dr. Spencer should have inquired among my mentors as to w...

NBA All Star games are an embarrassment for fans and should be to players.

Re: Lefty Driesell

Great man and great coach. My favorite coach and he always will be.

Raise your arms in victory at the Pearly Gates, Lefty. Saint Peter will welcome you.

RIP

Re: Steph update

Klay came off the bench for the first time in 12 years and led the Warriors with an efficient 35 points. Postgame he talked about Mano Ginobili who came off the bench for many years and won 4 championships in his Hall of Fame career with the Spurs. Sounds like Klay is positively accepting a new role...

Re: Steph update

Kerr loses the game for Warriors last night. Stops the team's hot streak and stops Jackson-Davis's good play as predicted. No Kuminga to close the game ... again. Stayed with Wiggins and Klay, who were not playing well, to close in the 4th quarter as Kuminga, Moody, and Jackson-Davis watched them pl...

Re: Steph update

Klay was very good on offense and played better defense than he has recently. If he and Wiggins can be good consistently, I believe the Warriors can win some playoff games. They don't have to be great ... A great positive for Klay is that he encourages the younger guys even when they are getting som...

Re: Steph update

With Kerr gone for the night ... the Warriors' best center was given 9 minutes of playing time. About double what Kerr has given him lately and about one third of what he should be playing. Trayce Jackson-Davis scored 11 points, got 4 rebounds, 1 assist, and had 1 blocked shot in those 9 minutes. Ke...

Re: Steph update

BTW, the Podz pass to Steph for the win was perfect in spite of the commentators' assessments. High risk cross court pass and if 6 to 12 inches to Podz left Beal deflects the ball and the game is over. Steph said the ball had spin on it which brought it closer to him on the bounce. Maybe CP3 can mak...

Re: Steph update

Steph great again. Kuminga very good again. Kudos to Looney and Jackson-Davis. Each guy played only 5 minutes and each grabbed 4 rebounds. Rare production in such limited time and a key to enabling the Warriors to win. If they only get a couple of rebounds each (which would be very good in 5 minutes...
