Game 1: Warriors @ Lakers, opening night! National game!

[northoakland510]

This is such BS we're missing the entire first quarter of Warriors-Lakers for friggin Oklahoma vs. Texas.

A lot of people in the Bay and LA missed a quarter and a half. It's really not that hard, just have the local markets of the next game make the switch at tip-off. The NFL does it with FOX/CBS.

I have Peacock and they had both game streams available. The Houston-OKC game was in OT or double OT and the Warriors game was available as a separate stream. I started watching when it was 2-0 Lakers.

I have Peacock and I am paying the extra for the NBC Sports Bay Area package. I have felt cheated because they only aired maybe one of the preseason games. I liked that Peacock allowed us to view the game we wanted.

Jk's rebounding is encouraging.

replays still aren't available, right? It's like 90% of the reason we're paying for Youtube TV. Last I checked, nbcsportsbayarea allowed me to restart the stream from the beginning but if I didn't start watching before the game ended, the replay was not available. Made the east coast games almost impossible to watch.

I think there is a set # of games that the local station can't carry and, in the past it used to be some crap regular season games against the jazz or something (maybe 2 or 3 all year?). I think they've recently (last year or two) have made sure every RS game is either on national tv or NBCSBA with some preseason games, as a result, not being on local tv. i'm sure xdrta or some of the more informed posters will know the details

So if he could only play like one of smarters players in the game? If he could he would, he just don't have that what Jimmy has

You can be smart but ignorant of a subject. Butler mentions watching film with Kuminga, it sounds like they're doing it by themselves and I'd have to believe Butler is indicating Kuminga is extracting a lot of information from the film he may not knew to do before which can help him get better. You may think this is odd, but it's quite possible with Kuminga not going to college by going straight to the Ignite team and then NBA, Kuminga may have never been properly taught how to get better by studying film/video. When I watch Kuminga keep trying to attack lanes where it's really not really open, I wonder how can someone really study their own film and not fix that over time? This first game he played much better in the offense than anything I saw last 1/2 season. After the game, Kerr talking about Kumigna taking a bad shot, knowing it was a bad shot after he took ownership of it and raised his hand to say he knows he took a bad shot, this is how you earn the trust of your coach, acknowledging you did something bad vs just shrugging it off. You're showing you're learning what's right and wrong in the offense. Kuminga has some bad tendencies, muscle memory and changing how you react is tough to change, but if he's willing to work on them, acknowledge he knows he did something bad I think he can reach his potential in GS.

A lot of red flags I saw with Kuminga last year are decreasing, both in preseason and this first game. For Golden State and for Kuminga, the best thing would be him to continue down this new path, continue to get better and both sides will come out ahead. GS will have a future post Curry and Kuminga may be a top option for a franchise for a long time. He's progressing as a player, too bad it didn't happen in year 2 or 3, probably cost him a lot of money on this short 2nd contract.

The ignite was a disaster and Vicenie did a breakdown of how many people improved or had the draft position improve after the ignite. I don't remember exactly but the tally was incredibly one-sided: most people got hurt, some tremendously, by going to the g league.

There have been multiple things that have happened w/ JK over the last 4 years that have made me seriously question the warriors's player development program. I look at podz not developing a pull up jumper, mm taking 4 years to speed up his shot, and JK not developing as quickly as most. Sure, the minutes/goals on this team are hard for kids under 25 but do they not have coaches dedicated to individual player development??

I think personal development is mostly on the players, its players investing in themselves. The coaches will help and give some direction but it's up to the players to decide what to work on and how much they work. There are players who are just workers, Tyler Herro is a worker. His rookie season he got in touch with Butler (who just signed with Miami) and went to work out with Butler early on in his career to learn what it takes to get to Butler's level. A couple of guys who reached out to Butler to learn what it takes would be Doug McDermott, Tyler Herro, Jaylen Brown and now quite possibly Kuminga.

Butler had Luol Deng show him the way how and what to work for their games, they went to David Thorpe together early in Butler's career to get professional training. A lot of players have professional trainers, I would say that's a pretty good indication that it's up to the players to go that extra mile in developing their game in their own time.

Jk's rebounding is encouraging.

It's the one thing that would make him into a $20m player even if nothing else improved.

I watched it on replay because of the lost 1 1/2 qtrs from the 3OT game. As of now, it's still there. Search NBA.

The fact that Jimmy says, "It's my job" to make Kuminga better....wow. And don't forget what he's doing for Heild. Draymond thinks Kuminga has superstar potential. Butler has taken him under his wing. The team is lined up behind Kuminga to make sure he has every chance.

Wow. What an incredible team we fans get to watch year after year.

Thank you Joe Lacob!

PS Nice win. LOVE hammering the Lakers.
PPS Yeah....Podz needs to start proving he can hit shots CONSISTENTLY. Right now, I'd say he's still unproven.
