If steph is fed, and only if steph is fed up, I'd inquire about Ben simmons. He would give kerr the ball handling he desires plus added size and defense at the pf or c spot.

Are they? I was watching the Magic broadcast and they mentioned swelling in the knee for Kuminga.

Our man was in some serious heartfelt pain. I felt it through the screen. Heartbreaking.

Curry's reaction to Draymond's ejection was unlike anything I've ever seen from him. What to make of it? Not entirely sure, but it seems fairly obvious the emotional burden of dealing with Draymond has taken it's toll.

Steph needs to learn he can win without Draymond and win without Klay.

Kerr inferred that Moses was not in the rotation until the dray ejection.

I dont know what more Kerr needs to show kerr to get regular rotation minutes.

He can do that, but you need that 70 million on other players. Can't ask him to win without them while they take half of the team salary between two players. Especially as a old man.

heartbreaking what?
he's basically this franchise until he retires, if that kick at the end of the game really means something he should do something about it. otherwise, rather than the spontaneous reaction of a true competitor that still has that fire in him and wants to compete for championship, it's just a scene for the cameras the likes of lebron james.

Its sad looking at Curry reaction to Green ejection. He got 3y run from Durant, 6y from Klay and 7y from Green. Other than that is poor mediocrity or even worst.

Or too short. If he was +2 inches he’d be a 5.

It's unfortunate that all people will talk about is the dray ejection. When the story should be how a team gutted out a must win game minus 2 starters.

Curry hugged it out with Draymond after the game.

Team still needs him and he’s not bringing a young all star level player in a return.

They’re pretty much stuck with him. If Curry wants to get away from Green, he’s going to have to ask for a trade.

Nonsense.

Green won't get an all star in return, and we will take a step back initially in trading him, but if they lost this game today, or if any time remaining in this season if Green melts down and costs us a loss in our final game, Curry will march into Dunleavy's office and say it's time to move Draymond out. They will field offers, we will get lowballed and then they will trade him.

The organization on or off the court is stronger keeping Curry without Dray than Dray without Curry. It's a no brainier.

implied :wink:
I was right about 3 point shooting. I expect to be right about Tacko Fall. Some coach will figure out how to use Tacko Fall. This movement towards undersized centers will sweep ng back. Back to the basket scorers will return to the NBA.

I’d infer that Kerr will avoid giving Moses minutes.
