Steph update
Re: Steph update
Kerr and Curry always defend Green and his idiocy. They get to reap what they've sown. I hope Steph keeps putting up huge numbers, but other than an Olympics appearance I really don't care what his team accomplishes. They aren't fun to watch.

You know the old saying: the most important ability is availability. Draymond again fails his team.

Re: Steph update
If the W's play better when Green sits, maybe they will reconsider parting ways with him.... probably not, though, as his contract as well as his ongoing behavior could quickly sink any ship on which he sailed.
The Clippers, on the other hand, brought Hardin aboard. And Draymond, at least, can play some defense, so there is that.

Re: Steph update
Steph is back, and Wiggins and Klay are coming back to life. W's by 15 in the middle of the 3rd.
Re: Steph update
Hooray, Steph played! Team lost.

Re: Steph update
Wiggins is off the Schneid with 31 points last night.
Re: Steph update
Or maybe he'll fall apart pretty early. The Warriors look awful right now. I wonder if the Kings sent Draymond a present in thanks for the technical and the rally?i77cat wrote: ↑Thu Jun 22, 2023 6:53 pmWouldn't touch him with a 10' pole. But he helps get rid of Poole's nutty contract. It's a positive move. I'd play him 10 minutes a game, max. You don't want him to be a big part of your attack. It'll expose you to the big letdown when he falls apart in the postseason.

Re: Steph update
No Wiggins, no CP. pretty big talent dropoff missing those 2.

Re: Steph update
Green: Hope for an NBA suspension for life and arrest for assault. What will the Warriors do? Probably nothing. Hopefully Steph will be a "no comment" on this one.
Klay: We're watching the last days of a great career. There will flashes of brilliance which need to come more often.
Wiggins: He is not himself. I assume his father's addiction problems are crushing Andrew and tearing his family apart.
Answer: Surround Steph with the younger players more often ... insert Kuminga and maybe Podziemski into the starting lineup.

Re: Steph update
Lots of minutes from the young 'non-starters' (and CP3) last night. Podziemski responded with 20pts/11rebs. Paul, Moody, Sakic, and Kuminga all with good scoring nights. They couldn't quite erase the results of down games by Looney, Wiggins, and Thompson, and the unrestrained idiocy of Rodman...er, I mean Green.
Wiggins came out aggressive, hit a three, and then became a ghost for the remainder of the game. Agree with CatForever's diagnosis that Andrew's mental state is not healthy.
Apart from the losses, Green's frustrating, immature behavior, coupled with the lack of joy on this team, watching the Warriors has been painful recently. In a close game that I had pledged to watch until the end, I fell asleep with five or so minutes remaining.
Years ago, I would have been alert, anticipating the Warrior's win. Last night, I couldn't wait for what I expected to be another close loss.

Re: Steph update
I tried to watch it. Lasted only about five minutes. All of them were jacking up threes with no thought of running an offense. Such a far cry from the beautiful game they played a few years ago.

Re: Steph update
In his 14 year career Rodman had 12 ejections. In his 12 year career, thus far, Draymond has had 19 ejections.

Re: Steph update
I understand being pretty forgiving of a guy who was instrumental in winning 4 championships, but is the guy incapable of learning that he shouldn’t do things that hurt the team’s chances of winning?
