I guess he’s the hulk. Gets better when he’s mad.


That timeout by Kerr to chew out jk, changed the game.

We finally played with some energy.

We looked like we were sleep walking through this game

Cp3 was also fantastic that half.

It might be an idea not to play podz 35 minutes a game. Play a little more cp3 and a little more bigger backcourt with klay, moody, or wiggs as the sg which we did more of when podz left the game.

Wiggs blocks jj which leads to a dray dunk.

This might be the best stretch of basketball that the Dubs have played all year.

It’s like we finally remembered we need to play with energy on defense and not just let them do whatever they want

Whatever the nba record is for consecutive missed lay ups is, podz might have it.

Find a way to lock Kuminga up to a bit less than 30mil a year because when he reaches RFA some team is going to throw the max at him

Aldama not even making an effort to guard jk tonight, and jk doing the same for aldama. Both might go for their career high tonight.

What's the point in playing these midget line ups, when we saw how much better we are when we don't play 3 smalls.

we should start to reduce Podz mins and give it to CP3...prepare for the PS if there is one.

We are lucky klay is hitting shots because this unit can't defend a chair.

Kerr needs to stop playing these small ball lineups. I would never play Podz, Klay, Payton, and CP3 together. I just don't get it.

They are up 18 and I'm upset because Kerr closed that quarter with that small ball lineup.

We dont even need podz out there, we could put in moody, wiggs, or jk in that spot. I don't understand kerrs insistence of needing another pg out there with cp3.

100% agree. Hell, I would replace Payton for Moody too because Payton been making some boneheaded mistakes on D the last few games.

Playing cp3 with 4 non midgets and we can defend again. Weird...
