Really nice defensive effort tonight.

Kuminga....so do we REALLY want to trade this kid for Murry? !!!

Nice forceful game by Wiggins as well.

Again, good win.

But man I'm so done watching Looney receive the ball at the top of the key after several passes...only to have to send the rock back out again to someone .... WHO CAN SCORE!!!!

If cp played cojos minutes we’d be balling and he might make it through a playoff run. Instead Kerr will play him 30 and he’ll get hurt again.

One extra benefit for Kerr is that this game helps promote his ABM Treaty with Klay.

Kuminga says Draymond has been giving him a lot of support.

I'm down

Less midgets at Kerr's disposal the better

I doubt DJM would be down to come off the bench though

DJM is a good fit. Problem though, is that he should be taking Klay’s minutes, and Kerr would never do that.

Move Klay to the bench

Sorry but it's time to suck it up like Davd Lee. Periodt!

Not a chance. JK gonna be a Warrior lifer!

I like Kuminga, but if Mikal is available and Dunleavy didn't make that trade, that would be a colossal blunder.

Yeah, if they trade for MJD, he should be starting instead of Klay.

Kuminga and Dray came off the bench tonight but I think that's only temporary and both will be starting soon. If the result is winning we would be foolish to trade Kuminga.

Cory Joseph is much more tolerable when he's off-ball. Draymond handling the ball in the non-Steph mins with CoJo/Podz on the floor was big. Joseph can't create advantages with his dribble. But he can cut and shoot from a standstill and he's an attentive defender. Much like Wanamaker, he's someone who can be useful by virtue of not sucking when he's next to Steph and/or Dray. But no more Co Jo as a ball-handler ever again. Please.

The defense will struggle with dray being the only help defender for 4 guys.

No it wouldn’t. If you think that with Curry/Bridges/Klay can outscore teams like Denver/LAC/PHO than you are wrong. I only trade our youngsters for player who would make Curry 1b/2nd option on offence or for defensive big with 20pts package, but these are unavailable. Other than that no trade for our young guys.

I really liked the counter moves JK showcased tonight. The in&out dribble with his left hand getting to the rim. The pump fake and step through. Also the Harden rip under getting the bucket and the foul. That is progress.

We gotta relax, they beat an Atlanta team without Trae Young. If a trade for somebody like Mikal becomes available, and the Warriors don't do it because they aren't willing to give up Kuminga.... :lol:

Let's keep it real. Do what we have to for Steph's window.

Getting a guy like Mikal Bridges gives us a way better chance of competing. The other option is to basically say the Steph era is done so we're just committing to the young guys. Might as well trade Steph.

We don't need a super star. I believe somebody like Mikal can be the second best player on a championship team as long as Steph is still Steph, Draymond is still playing to a certain level, Klay is a beneficial player, and in this scenario, we might still have Wiggins who can contribute. There isn't going to be a better player than a Mikal Bridges available this season or this summer. So the decision has to be made what direction the team wants to go in if Mikal doesn't do it for the front office.
