Golden State Warriors 2019-2020

No, Im watching... it's even worse than the Warriors of yore, but I think most of this is a temporary situation due to injuries....
 
Is it the curse of the new venue? Same thing happened to the 9ers when they moved to Levi's

Sure feels that way, but we are in the domain of magical thinking so who knows. On one of their few win nights, the place was rocking and it felt like the curse was lifted.

Same with Levi's earlier this year.
 
Nice comeback from 22 against the Knicks with a crazy three by Russell to go to OT. WTF Knicks, at least play D if you aren't going to foul. Great second half by the Ws.

But then the Ws fell apart in OT.

I'm pissed because my pirate stream showed the Knicks feed not the NBCSBA feed and I didn't get to see Run TMC. (Knicks announcers called WCS Marquese Chriss.)

OMFG that Gary Harris move from the top 5 highlights. Stupid NBA didn't even make it #1 because they only care about dunks.

I am pretty outspoken about dunks. I think they are really exciting, if you are 12 years old. But I seem to be in the minority. I even think those dunk contests at end of season are pretty stupid.

I'll take one of Steph's sneaky, snaky backwards or left-handed lay-ups anyday over a monster dunk.

I just wish Baby Dubs and assembled extras could make a lay-up or a dunk right now. They are actually making a higher-percentage of harder shots than the most basic. I can't figure it out. Sometimes, there are big trees in the forest, but other times, they just frickin' miss the most basic open shots.

Damn, that Lakers/Bucks game tonight was pretty entertaining... apparently Giannis has developed a 3 pt shot, he hit 5 of them.

In other news, possibly Warrior related, projected number one pick Wiseman has officially left school to focus on preparing for the draft.

First play in this video is the Warriors taking the lead 91-89. They kinda stunk on offense for three quarters then put it together for their fourth win in a row.

Win streak, and Alen Smailagic played a few minutes, but played well.

I wanna keep Alec Burks as the equivalent of a Shaun Livingston-Iguodala experienced older bench guy. But i'm reading that they have to sell him to keep their two way young guys.

I dont know if selling Poole is an option but of all the rookies, he's the one I don't want to wait for. Amirite or wrong?

I see so much promise in most of the baby dubs that I don't fear the future at all. BUt we need the balance. And Russell is turning out to be that third shooter they need...so I'm not sure about dealing him either.

Opine away.

DLo won't stay.

Also if you don't have a sub to The Athletic, get one. They do 50% off all the time and it's badass longform stuff.

The Warriors have been monitoring Karl-Anthony Towns’ situation in Minnesota. He’s under contract until 2023-24 but has less reason than Antetokounmpo to be thrilled with his team’s trajectory. This was a topic among multiple team executives at the recent G League Showcase, with a few relaying word that Towns is unhappy in Minnesota. The Wolves currently sit at 13th in the Western Conference, two spots ahead of the gap-year Warriors, looking at another lost season. While the Wolves might dream of a scenario where Russell teams up with his good friend Towns, the Warriors have a differing vision of how a trade between the two franchises could shake out.


Something like DLo, their top 5 pick next year, and some more 1sts and one or two of the young guys this year for KAT.
 
Thanks for tip. Damn I do wanna read the rest of that. Sigh. I SHOULD be paying the Guardian before sports-n-stuff....
 
They looked really good against the Spurs, not so much against the depleted Twolves. These are effectively the Santa Cruz Warriors because they are not only missing Steph and Klay but also Looney, Russell, and WCS.

Something to make you smile from Smailagic:
