Best win of the season

It feels like the Warriors are part of 5/10 best games of the season this year. Several top level games that get decided by 1-2 buckets at the end vs high quality teams.

Is it: “rolling Klay back to 24 works, but barely. Maybe we should go to 20?”

Or: “We won. So let’s keep Klay at 24 until it costs us 2 or 3 games.”

It should have cost us this game but Steph bailed him out. He played that crap lineup for like 6 minutes. He was lucky they got us a 4 point lead at one point and it would’ve been the perfect time to take them out but he left them in for another minute and we were down 3.

It took them half the season and out of the play in for them to stop closing with Klay. Kerr is rolling with Klay at 24 until we go on another losing streak. Hopefully we don’t.

Story of the season. Some basic lineup changes to this season & Warriors would easily be 5-7th right now.

Kerr's stupid substitutions have cost us many games this season and past. Luckily for the last posession, he took out steph, you need length in those kind of scenarios. He kept steph in many such situations in the past and we have suffered.

This anti Klay crap is bugging me.

I can't wait until Klay resigned for the max!

Happy?

Podz is a winner. That pass was masterful I have no probable putting games in his hands.

That pass was amazing. Dumb Doris Burke totally missed it, saying the pass wasn't very good. Beal read the play perfectly, jumped into the passing lane but got beat by the english that brought the pass back toward Curry and allowed him to catch, turn and step into it.

Podz could teach a clinic in what a great floor game looks like.

He was very candid about it in the presser.

Said he saw beal in the lane, and wasn't sure if he can pass it in the back court, so he decided to do the english.

Nice read and split-second decision, though.

When klay sits good things happen.

in the end moody was hurt, or he's still in the dog house?

Dog house, he is healthy. Corpse of Klay got 24 legacy minutes over him.

i know, i saw it. kerr did not learned a thing if that's the case. it makes no sense......

i thought most of klay's threes were bad shots. AND they didn't go in. maybe give moses a try in this case. but noooo, let him stay or he will throw a tantrum.

I don't think Moody is in the dog house. He is victim of Kerr sticking with Klay and having Podz and GPIi ahead of him for minutes.

I am guessing that we'll see Klay sit on one end of b2b's for the rest of the season with Moody getting minutes there.

Q is ahead of him now. He IS in the doghouse, imo.

I don't think Kerr has a doghouse, he's just an idiot

His comments earlier on Moody betray his true opinions - he just genuinely doesn't think Moody is talented. He thinks his absolute ceiling is a role player like Looney.

So long as Klay isn't in a wheelchair he's going to get more minutes than Moody.

Wasn't Q starting because Moody wasn't fully fit at the time? If he's ahead of Mood, I'd put in my transfer papers at the end of the season.

I don't think Q is taking Moody minutes according to Kerr's thought process. Q is in the CoJo role where Kerr likes multiple ball-handlers unless its Steph/Dray or CP3/Saric out there. Q's minutes probably become garbage time minutes once CP3 is back.

Moody is behind Klay/Wiggins/Kuminga and some GP2/Saric scenarios as well. Basically a forward (3/4) but stuck behind a lot of players. Of course, I'd swap him for some of those players minutes to get him on the court for sure. Kerr doesn't see it that way.

I've honestly just given up on trying to figure out Kerr's logic.. Moody has been exactly as advertised and they refuse to play or trade him. If Moody wasn't so passive of a guy, he'd have been out of here months ago.. not a great idea to incentivize being a public complainer but that's effectively whats happening

i'm sorry for the guy.

his body language was not good last night, he seems old and burdened. kerr is breaking him, imo.

and his camp complaint iirc.... if i'm him i'm not signing a new deal with the dubs, honestly

Steve Kerr isn’t an idiot, he’s a hugely successful NBA coach. Saying he’s an idiot makes you look like an idiot.
