Excited to see Gui get more minutes tonight. He was a plus offensively and on the boards. Pretty bad lateral quickness on D though.

Overall hope Ws adjust the style of player to how we played today-- with Kerr trusting a different set of guys and the role players chipping in good effort and pouring in stats across the board. Less reliance on both Curry and the 3. Real team win w/ defensive effort.

Nets played really bad offensively and had little to do with our defense.

That along with jk/steph carrying the offense in the 2h, and klay not closing were the 3 reasons we won.

i agree we need a real threat who can make threes down the stretch. this team is not going to win a lot of games even we dont play klay


We have a guy named steph. They are other ways of generating offense without the 3 ball. We can apply rim pressure which opens things up more for steph. We can live in the paint.

Good defense to transition offense.
Rim attacks and post ups.

We dont need klay unless it's off the bench.

Kuminga's ability to adjust and learn on the fly has been great to see.

Also I get why Klay is upset but sulking on the bench isn't a good look, be happy for the "other" guys for once

Better him sulking on the bench than pouting on the floor.

Kuminga has been on a roll but this game was particularly encouraging due to the fact that he didn't have a great start to the game but he stuck with it and made the adjustments to turn it around. Finished with 28pts, 10 boards, got to the line and made them and he commited 0 fouls!

Good game without klay taking his shot attempts. Jk is ripping that 2nd option role away from him.

It’s hilarious that gui santos is out playing Klay and we can win with gui but closing with Klay is a nightmare. At least it’s becoming more and more apparent and Kerr may have finally figured it out. Can we go on an actual run now?

Kuminga finishing over Bridges and Claxton was eye opening.

this kind of attitude is annoying, especially from a vet like him. it's the golden state warriors, not the golden state klay's for crying out loud. man up and be an example teammate for the young cats and the locker room, don't be a selfish entitled former star. and the coach should keep such attitude (whoever player) in check.

Gui doesnt make many plays but he is solid enough not to screw things up too bad.

JK was forcing it in the first half but really strong in the second.

Draymond was solid. Had some good passes to Curry.

Overall, think the Nets just arent very good, but nice to see a win. Ill keep an eye on the boxscores to see if Gui and Moody keep getting playing time.

Anyone that isn't clinically insane, blind or Steve Kerr can see that Klay is an atrocious player that hurts the team offensively and defensively. The idea that it should take Kerr this long if that is disgraceful.

We could go on a celtics like run to close the season.

We've beaten some bad teams, but the roster and rotations are forming:

Steph is steph.
Dray is dray.
Wiggins is Wiggins.
Jk taking klays role.
5 starter is ?
Podz is iggy
Moody is opj
Gp2 is gp2
Loon is loon
Gui is jta
Klay is Damion Lee
Q is a wannabe poole with defense.
Saric is bjelly.
Cp3 is an expensive chiozza.

I know he got ejected but Claxton is what the dubs need at the C spot.

Might be too late this season, but if Kuminga is that guy, there are a lot of ways this FO can build around Steph and him.

Really love that someone obviously gave Klay a reality check. Possibly to stopped him from getting traded.

On a human level, I feel for the guy. He said it best:

"To go from one of the best players…It’s hard for anybody.
-Klay Thompson
"

Also Draymond stfu
